Techniques to Shop for Fiberglass Products with Confidence
High Quality Planters:
-
Jay Scotts products are light weight because we use high quality polyester resin.
-
Each Jay Scotts product is carefully hand-finished. When you feel the surface of our products, or inspect the interior, it is smooth and continuous, which is what you should expect from high- quality fiberglass products.
Poor Quality Planters:
- Are overly heavy. If the product feels heavy, it’s likely that the manufacturer added fillers to the resin. Fillers sacrifice quality and make the products less valuable and durable.
- Large lumps or strips of fiberglass matting indicate poor construction and improper finishing, Poor quality planters are rough rather than smooth with waves, bumps or imperfections in the finish, which may mean that the product has been made on unsuitable equipment and corners have been cut with poor finishing techniques.
