January 22, 201411 yr Author Looking good brother! The enclosure and amp racks look like they should come out sweet. My wife has an '06 Xterra so I am tuned in.Thanks I just need the weather to warm up here so I can glass. I probably won't touch the box til this weekend when the weather gets warmer. Was going to mess with it tonight but high is ok y 40 something n temps tonight will be near 25....not good for glass work lol.
January 22, 201411 yr Keep anything you are going to glass and the glass its self heated until right before glassing. Then the glass should create its own heat once mixed. I have glassed and painted in Colorado winter's with this route.

I have glassed and painted in Colorado winter's with this route. This tipped worked. I bought a lil heating/spotlight lamp and with the temperature being around 40 this morning I was able to glass and the stuff has been curing all day. Going to need more resin though for sure
January 26, 201411 yr Excellent choice on the felt cloth. Make's for a great first layer that holds lot of resin!! Keep the pics coming.
January 26, 201411 yr Author Excellent choice on the felt cloth. Make's for a great first layer that holds lot of resin!! Keep the pics coming. I try to go with a stretcher material but this is all walls work had that was lightweight n stretched. I have worked with it before but your right it soaks up resin. I have to open up the speaker rings and coat the inside as well just as a precaution I seen mb quart amps and I was glued to the screen!!!I take it as a good thing?
January 27, 201411 yr Author Nice work man Thanks Looks good. Hope she's happy!She will be when its finished lol
January 28, 201411 yr Author here are pics from last night i snapped....nothing different just alittle trimming
February 3, 201411 yr Author well i was hoping this weekend was more productive but i was only able to get a good solid 1 layer down of matte and resing mixture due to the fact i ran out of resin. im takin back on this build how much resin i am going thru etcanyways i didnt take but one pic since nothing really changed really.
