Jbabycsx Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 where can one acquire this stuff ? and that why i wana do it to learn :-) cant learn unless trial by fire I would suggest practicing on an old kick panel from a junk yard first. You can get everything you need to do it at a local auto parts store. Dont use the thick fiberglass mat it is way to hard to work with. Get the thin fiberglass cloth that is flexible. I have seen people use a thick fleece type material instead of fiberglass as well. Make a frame, cover it with the mat, tack it in place and resin the crap out of it. Follow up with bondo and primer then paint it. Sounds easier than it really is.
