Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is a process for reproducing a fiberglass panel having the physical appearance of a fence made from conventional materials. A model fence panel is constructed from conventional materials, a mold is formed on the face of the model panel, and a fiberglass panel formed on the mold. The fiberglass panel duplicates the physical appearance of the original panel on one face and includes an integrally formed mounting frame on the opposite face. The panels are supported between conventional fence posts to form a fiberglass fence having the physical appearance of a conventional fence.
