Amart88 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I see alot of people using some sort of body filler to stregnthen their enclosures. Smoothing it out in the corners. Also for moulding in speaker pods and a pillars etc. What would be the most common kind that I would use in my box? Will it stick to fibreglass resin? example #1 example #2 My 2005 s10 blazer build. 4 zcon 18's walled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSkippyJ Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Body filler adds no strength. It's good for finishing purposes not structural purposes.

nej89 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 there is a product out there called fiberal and it is like fiberglass hairs in a can with activator in the other tube and when u squeeze it out it puts the right amount of hardener u need. that is add strength but regular body filler is just for making it smooth and clean looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbdblue Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 the only thing you can use is Duraglas or a similar fiberglass reinforced filler, but it cannot be used very thick, and regular fillers won't be good for any structural application AA-Atomic-Clif Designs-DC-Diamond-Digital Designs-Directed-Eclipse-Fi-Hertz-Hifonics-Kenwood-Memphis-Phoenix Gold-Pioneer-PPI-PSi-Stinger-Sundown-TC Sounds-Viper-Zapco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris SkinnyWhitekid Weber Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 RAge is awesome stuff, yes. You could mix fiberglass resign with body filler for like this peanut butter like substance and throw some horse hair in it. But you do need more strength in the box than just that obv. info on body filler for boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
