Its easy. If ur molding two seperate bumper together like I did u need one long cloth thats wide enoungh to touch over both bumpers. About 2 to 4 iinches then cut lil 5x2 inch rectangles. Lay ur resin on the first mat then lay ur rectangels. lay more resin do this about four times. Four good layers. Mat-resin-mat-resin. Let it dry flip the bumper over and do the inside the same way but use more mating. Do this 5 or 6 times. The bondo I used was red put more hardener than need. so it dries quickly. Once it completely dry in like 20 mins. I go to town on it.
