Fiberglass Lay-up & Fastener Installation

After the rubber has cured I began backing it up with a gypsum and fiberglass to a stable thickness ranging from 3/8 to about 1/2 of an inch. I chose to divide this long section horizontally at a suitable break point for ease of removal.




Second section fiberglass and gypsum is started after the shutter is removed and the first section is waxed.

Housed fasteners are installed with milled fiberglass polyester resin patching material. In this case I chose 3/8" T-nuts with the tines snapped off.


The side shutter is removed and preparations begin for moulding the next section.
