mrdavebasshead75 Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 Got a noobie here. When glassing the inside of the box for strength, do u just use resin or resin and mat?

MrSkippyJ Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 both. Quote F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69
Hollowstylez Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 I agree, use both. I have seen people use resin only for the corners though. Quote
c.director Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 I resin the whole thing and use mat in the corners most of the time. Quote Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/caleb.arnold.9809 YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/CustomAudioChannel?feature=watch
MrSkippyJ Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 resin itself adds no strength. Quote F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69
mrdavebasshead75 Posted March 26, 2012 Author Report Posted March 26, 2012 Ok, so I could get away with just the resin and just put the mat in the corners?? And if I mat the whole box would I have to sand it down? That seems like alot of work!!

Hifonicsmax1 Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 It all depends on your budget. I prefer to use fiberglass and resin. Resin alone is very brittle and can crack easily, while with fiberglass the strands may crack under extreme circumstances but are very hard to still come apart. Quote Click for My Current Build
watabeast Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 usually if you are going for strength then as MrSkippyJ said, Both, but if you are just making sure it is sealed up, then just resin. I personally would do both if you are not sure on the structural integrity of your box. Quote

That seems like alot of work!! Lol Yup I would most definitely sand it down, hard work pays off.
