Fiberglass reinforced panels, or FRP, are thin, flexible plastic panels made of strong polyester resin reinforced with fiberglass. They are used on walls and ceilings and can be installed directly over drywall, wood, concrete block, and many other solid surfaces.
Can you cut FRP panels with a utility knife?
Place the sharp edge of the utility against the cut edge of the FRP, tilt the blade on a 15-degree angle and drag the knife along the cut to remove any burr remaining from the cutting process. Do not push the blade along the cut–this will damage the FRP panel.
What are the disadvantages of FRP?
Disadvantages of FRP Materials
- At high temperatures the material’s strength decreases and deflection increases.
- These materials continue deflecting under heavy, sustained loads (creep).
