try boat/yacht builders, marine supplies or something like that. You want a good quality epoxy (read expensive) as cheap ones are not worth the hassle. For fibreglass you want the woven stuff not the mat which is just chopped up fibres. There are many types which are good for different things. Start with say a 200-300gsm (7- 8 oz) plain weave. this has the strands woven at 0 and 90 degrees. you may need a couple of layers of this depending on your application. Experiment from there.
