make a fiberglass home audio sub enclosure.

evercoat is great bondo, but yall should also try dynatron putty coat. it is a polyester spot putty and filler. it is the easiest to use bondo i have ever used, it is not near as picky as some on mixture ratio. we use it all day long for wood AND darthness it will work on plastic as well. of course that depends on how flimsy the plastic is. but basically this stuff works on all surfaces, yet it can be used as the primary filler as well as spot putty.

highly recommended

thats an interesting idea... don't have a receievr for a home sub though. i've got ten pounds of fiberglass though!

edit: how long should i wait before sanding my primer... i used krylon primer. it says it drys in 12 minuets but to wait an horu before you handle... im guessing i have to wait an hour?

No it will be longer than an hour. You want to wait till its fully dry before you start sanding. The hour is just enough that you to handle it without messing up the paint to bad. I would give it 4 to 6, depending on temp, and how heavy you sprayed it on.

hrm... i went out today to do some sanding on it and the stuff came right off.. the panel was sanded before. but i sanded the things down and then sprayed some more primer on it... hope it works.

edit: i think i just used a too light of a coat the first time.

edit 2: i just applied my first coat base coat (black)... hopefully this will turn out alright... although i'm thinking i should of gone with a semi-flat black instead of high gloss.

wowzers..


for something my newb ass did they turned out pretty well.... they're a really nice glossy black. i wsih i would of bondo'd them though... some of the scratches are slightly visible.
