bsneon98 Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Okay. Good to know. I'd gladly add pictures if I could figure out how (sorry I'm still new). I can't for the life of me find a way to add them. All good man.

bsneon98 Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Looks like your on the right track for sure. I would sand the crap out of what you have and see where your at. You will likely need to glass more You have to figure out the transition from the plastic to the fabric, more mat and resin helps greatly. Better yet drill a ton of holes for the resin to seep into the plastic.

Tahoe Dmo Posted September 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Thanks a lot, bsneon. Yeah I was kind of wondering how I was going to get it to blend to the plastic easily. Also, should I wrap some fiberglass mat around to the back side of it to get it to stick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dolarbilz Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 When I wrap the material again I'll use hot glue on back side to hold it and use staples around edges or contour to help shape what I want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolarbilz Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 I'll apply one coat resin. Let it dry then take a look at it sometimes materials don't stick or lay the way you waNt.i cut out the bad sections and added fiberglass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandpride684 Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Here is the link to mine, didn't fiberglass it like billz did his, I just laid out how I wanted it to look then wrapped it and glassed it, didn't need too much filler because how I laid the glass... http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/186921-blk9te-07-yukon-slo-mo-build/page-7 Build Log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/186921-blk9te-07-yukon-slo-mo-build/page-3?hl=%2Bblk9te#entry2881410 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolarbilz Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Here you can see one sand out other ready to sand . You want it to feather out together . No ridges. Sand between each step, everything a build up of material and knock it down.dont be afraid to start over if it's not coming out the way you want.
