fiberglassing my armrest question?
Wednesday, September 06, 2006 2:29 PM
Okay i am going to be glassing my armrest in my 03 cavalier, and I was just curious about the step process.
I know you tear the vynal off and then drill holes in it so the fiberglass sticks on both sides, then wrap w/fleece , brush on the fiberglass, sand smooth then bondo. Am I missing any steps ? please help.

just remeber the less bondo the better, the more you have on the more it will likely crack.

So you drill hols
wrap with fleece and glue/staple down

then stab the death the fleece with resin
then lay ontop of that fiberglass MATT
and then stab to death that with resin

you can do that liek 2-3 times in one sitting

then sand forever

tada

I'm pretty sure you dont need to use fleece on your armrest you already have your shape

for the armest, just cover the holes in the top i think there were 6 with a bit of filler, sand and paint, no need to fiberglass that piece.
