cichlidfort Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Is it just a reinforcer and just for looks? Does it do anything else besides that? 2008 Chevy Impala (undercover cop style) Setup in the makings

PaulO2288 Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 It made my box stronger and sanding it smooth helped create air flow and 2 dbs on the meter.

may03LT Posted April 26, 2008 Report Posted April 26, 2008 its not hard, it is messy and time consuming though....i used it to round the port corner and do the 45's meade-style....well worth it imo
Deafdreamz Posted April 26, 2008 Report Posted April 26, 2008 Resin will help with airflow Fiberglass pad will "help" with strength I only use pad to make whole boxes or door pods.

99_Xploder Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 to answer the original question, what most people think of as "fiberglass" is anything curved and painted. the curved shape generally is usually just for looks so someone doesnt have just a square box. The actual fiberglass mat part is added in layers to achieve the proper thickness for whatever speakers are used. then you can smooth it enough to wrap or have it painted that glossy look.
