Matt,
usually it goes away but it takes a bit of time. To help accelerating the process you can put your dio to set in a very vell ventilated area. Ideal would be outside and in the shade...

From my experience (father fixes boats) the fiberglass stuff does take a bit of time to 'dry' and loose its smell. It should dissipate.
Warm sun would be the best - but you do (as you are) need to be concerned with 'stuff' falling on it
