      I think it's an awesome video and I hit the like button however I could see some people nitpicking and saying that it's not technically fiberglass because he didn't use fiberglass, he used felt or whatever it was and the resin...

    Love the technique, I'm already inspired for many projects that I could adapt this to. The fleece over multiple materials to tie them together is outstanding. Just in this video alone: MDF, Plastic, and Metal married by Fabric and Bondo! Brilliant! Especially stronger than vacum forming on a DIY level. Thanks for sharing.

      I did see that one as well. Thinking about doing a custom Engine Cover for an LS swap that I am doing on a Jeep. Since it is just a decorative piece, I am sure your method would be awesome for this. I like the idea of a felt first layer. Sweet!

    • @DavidGuyton
      @DavidGuyton  Před 7 lety +1

      It'll work for just about anything that isn't a structural part of the car....however I should point out that you should use fleece, and not felt....two very different fabrics and if you try to use felt you are going to be cursing at me haha

    @coburnlowman Před 9 lety +1

    That really is a great tutorial. I have never thought of using filler and resin together. I seen in other post you use Bondo brand filler. I can see you know what you are doing. But 3M makes several great body fillers like all the lite types they have finishes many times easier than Bondo brand. They don't leave air holes nor do they have hard spots. They sand like a dream. Just thought I'd pass it along. The price isn't much different as well. Thanks for such a good detailed video.

    Thanks a lot! :)

    • @DavidGuyton
      @DavidGuyton  Před 9 lety

      You bet! I actually modified (heavily) a Mazda console for my '65 Impala using this method. Started some door panel parts from scratch too. It works very well for this stuff....but make sure you have the parts installed on the car BEFORE applying the resin. That way they are sure to fit when you put it back in the car. In this case, the dashboard was stiff enough that I didn't need to do that.By the way here's a pic of my Impala interior, all made with the same method, wrapped in leather'like vinyl (still not finished):

      All Good brother, I have messed with fiberglass projects for twenty years and never thought about mixing these two working materials. I wonder should I mix the hardeners slightly at first or do they react with each other quickly. I usually work in 90 plus degree temps here in louisiana.

    • @DavidGuyton
      @DavidGuyton  Před 10 lety

      You might want to experiment. I just add the amounts I think are about right and mix it up and go. I find that it cures slower than just Bondo, but faster than the resin alone.
