paco Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Where do you buy that material that you put on top of the resin to harden it? I'm talking about the silver stuff you used on your build. Whats the name and where do you buy it? Did you use chop mat for that too? 1996 Impala, just a weekend toy Molesting the wicked streets of chitown (next in line for sounds) 2006 Corolla...current audio head ache and money pit Alpine cda 9881 head unit pioneer 6x9's Hiphonics 6.5 components power acustik tweeters Not installed but in the to install list: Hifonics Brutus BXI 2080D 2600 watts rms 2 12" Kicker L7's Dual 4 ohm subs wired at 2 ohms each = 1 ohm load 0 gauge wire, MLA module Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about the silver stuff you used on your build. Whats the name and where do you buy it? Did you use chop mat for that too?I have no idea what you are talking about.The only silver material shown is tin foil. It is used as a masking/sheild to keep resin form sticking to the inside of the spare tire well. I don't understand the last part of your question since it pertains to the first part that makes no sense.

I don't understand the last part of your question since it pertains to the first part that makes no sense. I was referring to the woven mat that you apply first. I missed that part when I first saw your post. I somehow skipped the part where you mention that you use the woven mat to re-enforce and then the chop mat. Re phrasing my question(s), Where do you buy your woven mats and chop mats from, and should we expect to pay for this material? 1996 Impala, just a weekend toy Molesting the wicked streets of chitown (next in line for sounds) 2006 Corolla...current audio head ache and money pit Alpine cda 9881 head unit pioneer 6x9's Hiphonics 6.5 components power acustik tweeters Not installed but in the to install list: Hifonics Brutus BXI 2080D 2600 watts rms 2 12" Kicker L7's Dual 4 ohm subs wired at 2 ohms each = 1 ohm load 0 gauge wire, MLA module Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want some serious thick mat, a boat store, Napa paint stores, or online. Now resin... that's a different story. Not so cheap these days...

This guy^^^ KNOWS.And is correct, most autoparts stores have a fiberglass or "body work" section. Autozone/NAPA/Kragen/Checker/Advance/pep boys/etc should all have both woven mat and "chop mat" which is the thicker stuff...I use the same "Bondo" brand mat and resin avail at Autozone as I have discount on it there. There is much "BETTER" material out there, but I have never had any issues with what I have used forever and I will only switch when I feel the need or have someone willing to pay for the "good stuff". I would say the MAIN difference I notice from using different brands which I have done just as an experiment is the FILLER needs to be the highest $$$ you can afford/stomach. You will have an easier time sanding it and better results generally...but I use "shit" and get by. The packs of woven mat/chop mat are 2'x4' or 8square ft total...and they cost around $4/each after tax. This place has marked pretty high @ $5.62...you can get them around $3.49-$4.00 range easy. http://www.homeandbeyond.com/prod-0003549.html COOGLE SAID:"bro thats how we got where we are... buy making messes ...... i still learn all the time you just gota be willing to ruck up some shit" "In order to attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd." ~ Miguel de Unamuno"One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men, but no machine can do the work of one extraordinary man" -Elbert Hubbard"A proud man can learn humility...but he will be proud of that too" ~I forget who.I'm far from perfect and I know it better than anyone, but I hope to be good at what I do, when I do it...Installs I've done:My Integra: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=3161The Lexus : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=1535Law's Maxima: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...ic=5568&hl=Jeff's 2500HD: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...ic=5382&hl=Acura RSX-S: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=3142Z-32 300zx: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=34602004 Civic 4dr: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...?showtopic=8190Trunk/Corner Box: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...c=16036&hl=1969 Chevy C-10: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...c=20319&hl=Seat-Back AMP-RACK How-to: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...ic=9428&hl=Bunch of subs still for salehttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...l=lsn2meboom916"It's game night...we're playin......sex."~Quagmire"When disneyland started it was powered completely by orphan children running on treadmills to generate e-lectrissty…and today, them children are New York Yankees". ~Dale Gribble"Fill it with ice...then pour it up to the top of the ice...& Shut da Fu** up!" ~Urs truly.
