Pioneerchuck Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Strength is the main benefit of fiber glassing the box. and it seals up any areas where air might be able to leak out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_paralyzed_ Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Well, people resin the inside of boxes because they think the smoother surface helps air move. I'm pretty sure it doesn't make a damn bit of difference, but everyone here seems to do it. Fiberglassing the outside could add rigidity, but it would take a LOT OF fiberglass. Flat fiberglass isn't that rigid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n8ball2013 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Resin itself adds no strength. Resin with clot or mat will become very strong. I may and resin all my seams when doing big power. Basically anything that wools require double baffles.
