We do use fiberglass, and Carbon fiber is like 0294834 times stronger than fiberglass. There's a Vader in SoCal, Cenobyte, who has his armour made out of carbon fiber; looks awesome and as strong as the Hulk.
If you can make armour and use Carbon Fiber, you will never have to worry about it breaking. I say go for it :)
o ryt cheers, do you have to use epoxy resin or does any resin do the job?
Isn't TRUE Carbon Fibre baked in an inert-gas-filled oven?..I don't think it relys on resins and glues for strength...
A lot of fake Carbon Fibre for car dashboards etc has material that looks like Kevlar (tm), but it's really the resin that does the job.
