Funny, I've been looking for the exact same thing this past few days... here's a couple of good 'uns I've found so far:

http://www.tomps.com/mouldmaking/

http://www.resin-supplies.co.uk/hint__tips_grp.htm

I've also bought 'The Fibreglass Handbook' but haven't really read it in detail yet... just skimmed through it:

HTH,
John

Hi Darth Domain

You could also try Tiranti's - they have a number of technical booklets that might help:

Plus, if you have specific queries I believe you can call the shop in Reading for advice.
