using fiberglass to seal off wall


Recommended Posts

I've got a quick question. I will be finishing up my wall in my tahoe asap and I was trying to think of the cleanest looking and easiest way to seal off my wall without messing up the interior. The box is completely built and i will be facing it forward behind my second row seat. My question is, can I just make cardboard cutouts to fit the openings perfect and tape them to the box and then fiberglass over them and over the entire front of the box? I think this would look the best as I could just paint it afterwards. Thanks for any input!

IF you do it right it'll look good... If this is your first time I wouldn't make it too permanent. Fiberglass can be a major pain in the ass. You'll want to redo it, I guarantee. I'm saying this form experience. But by all means, go for it. Gotta learn sometime.

2015 Subaru Outback. That is all, I refuse to touch it.

Ya I was hoping it wouldn't be too dificult lol, but nothing is ever easy. But I will just keep in mind where the seams are so I can take it out if I need to. But you think if I make it nice and thick it will work out?

Haven't seen that. I'll check it out. That should help me out a lot.
