Mac N Cheese's build log

[Mac N Cheese 90]

Alright finally i started to do a build log...this is going to be one continuous build log. Right now i am in the process of glassing my passenger A pillar and so far its going better than planned. Picked up some fleece today and a brush

heres the first A pillar...this is my first time doing pods so this one turned out quite nice well to me it did

heres the mess

fleece is SO much easier...

heres the amp rack i just finished....40 bucks a sheet of this plexi but i thought it was worth it

if anyone is wondering what i am running in my car here it is

well more to come on the A pillars tonight

Lookin' GOOD, I'm tuned in.

How do you like your Pathfinder? I have a 2006 Nissian Xterra.

i like it alot, for some reason i like the model i have better than the 07-08...i leased one and those are just too bulky for me, so the SE i have now is the perfect size with just enough beast in it

[Mac N Cheese 90]

got called in for work at the last minute so could't pick up any fiberglass/body filler

-but i'll manage somehow to get over to menards

Thats funny, the Xterras are the other way around. My friend has an 05 and its more like a car and I couldn't own one.

yeah i drove both Xterra and pathfinder and now that i remember it was probably the Armada that was bulky

i like it good work!

[Mac N Cheese 90]

i like it good work!

alright just got back from Lowes, and fixed my amp rack so now its secured down and plexi is tightly flush...only thing left to do now is start glassing

[Mac N Cheese 90]

materials i picked up

Starting right NOW

[Mac N Cheese 90]

By far the EASIEST time glassing, probably because i used latex gloves, last couple times i was to lazy to use them...

I use the same cup for glassing every time, over a year or resin is solid in it, hehe

A single layer of resin on the fiberglass mat

drying process now...might be able to throw in one more layer before work, but we'll see

[bigrank916 72]

Check out some of this stuff. It stays tacky during layers so you dont have to sand. Tap Plastics Then on the last layer, you add the hardener. Surface Curing Agent Its pretty cool stuff. You will want the bubble buster as well.

Coming along nicely. How do you get exactly 67% though! LOL

[Duran 387]

Is there a reason your doing a layer of glass mat as well? You really won't need it, do the resin soaked fabric and body filler to smooth and shape it.
