I have built a center console out of styrophome and I was wondering how do you go about fiber glassing it? I already have the fiberglass patches and the fiberglass resin with hardener, any suggestions would be great fully appreciated. Thanks |

the foam sounds like a great idea, I actually need to do the same thing in my boat. As for the fiberglass just mix up your wet stuff and dip the glass mat in the goop. Theny you can lay the mat on your foam. Like someone else said 3 layers should be plenty. You can bondo once finished and sand and paint just like you would anything else. Good post by the way. Post a pic when done. |

Just saw this thread... might be too late. But, I have some videos you can download that show how to do fiberglasssing. They are kind of crappy quality, but it was done by a guy that makes fiberglass parts for kit airplanes and he shows you a lot of a cool stuff. -d |
. He is only a year old and is wild a hell.

Out of curiosity, what have you all made out of fiberglass? I've been toying with the idea of making a custom console that would add-on to my console in my truck. Mainly to add in a slot for my rechargeable flashlight and to be able to just drop my IPod into a slot and have it dock up with the cable. -d |
