Rell Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Ponte FTW!!! http://www.joann.com/sew-classic-knit-ponte-many-colors/prd32705/ With ponte and cheap crappy bondo resin you just need to hardly coat it and it soaks right in, with good resin it soaks in even better. With fleece and cheap crappy bondo resin you can end up using damn near half the can trying to fully saturate the fleece, using good quality resin that's thin and runny makes fleece not so bad though, but it still soaks up a lot of resin. What cost more? Resin or Fleece? I would def spend the extra cash on ponte over fleece. You will use way less resin. Why are you sanding the fleece after it cures anyways? Unless you are using wax resin.
pimpnFosgates Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Posted January 29, 2012 the fleece has ridges thAt wen i sand bondo on top, bthe bondo goes down lower than ridges.FML Lucky Durango Sony hu 4 croosfire 6.5mids crossfire 600.1 mono amp American bass 1280.4 mids and highs amp aq hdc3 12 2.4 cube net box, tuned to 34 and 14.4 inches of port per cube
Rell Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 You shouldn't even see the fleece anymore after laying down a few layers of fiberglass chop mat. So these 'ridges' should be of no issue really. I hope you are not soaking fleece with resin and then just applying bondo on top of that. That's not how it works. -Stretch fleece -Soak fleece in resin -Let fleece cure -Rough sand fleece (optional) -Apply few layers of fiberglass mat -Sand -Apply body filler -Bodywork to desired finish
n8ball2013 Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 fleece eats up gallons of resin and is not the best material for stretch.
