There's gas tank forming technique where you fill a motorcycle's tank with 
cement, peel the tank
off, then pound aluminum sheet over the cement tank shaped lump. Mainly I'm 
interested in forming
the bottom panel of the tanks, I'll custom make the top.
So, I picked two projects, soap and water rinse for both tanks, and got some 
'crack resistant'
cement (seems to have fiberglass strands in the mix).
I let them set up for a couple of weeks, and peeled them both earlier this week.
And look what I found embedded in the cement in one-->

Of course, my wife's first question was "That's not ours is it?"
