You first make a frame for the fiberglass cloth, using wood preferably of whatever you want to make, mix your resin and lay it on your structure, then cloth and resin over the cloth, then mix up some fiberglass filler and start sanding and repeating, id wear gloves and a face mask cause that shit will make you itch and fuck up your breathing hahaha

Nope, fiberglass resin and body filler are two different things entirely. Resin is what you spread into the cloth to make it strong, filler is what you use when you are done fiberglassing to make the part perfect for paint.
