I've heard of people molding lips and skirts etc. I was just wondering what y'all used, bondo,....?
My second question is about the heat gun I know y'all use it to heat side skirts to fit better I was just wondering where y'all bought them? |

QUOTE(TwistedmindZ @ Jan 8, 2006 - 12:35 AM) [snapback]375868[/snapback] fiberglass doesn';t flex with heat you need to use fiberglass resin and then bondo. heat gun works well on urethane kits but since those are expensive and almost nonexistant for the 6gc. Oh and by the way, If your not 99% sure about somthing, PLEASE DO NOT POST... Dont want to be rude, but im sick of people posting wrong info.. Fiberglass molds with heat.. well.. basicaly what your doing is melting the glass.. and reforming it.. allthough it does weakin it, so you must be carful when doing it. This is how i got my cheap ass ****ty skirts to fit, well i would say pretty damn nicly.. took a lot of heating up and twisiting and such.. As for where i got the gun.. I "borrowed" it from work.. its one of those high temp shrink wrap guns.. This post has been edited by Digndoug: Jan 9, 2006 - 9:01 PM |
