glass wool

Is that the same as fiberglass?

Also "forbidden cotton candy"

Kinda but not really, they're both made from glass fibres, but are a very different product that serves a very different purpose. Fibreglass typically comes in a flat cloth, and is used with resin to create something structural.

In the US we generally use fiberglass to mean both. But specifying glass wool would be more clear tbh.

Would also match nomenclature with Mineral Wool Insulation.
