so i've got smooth and uneven fiberglass. oh well

at least i only had to use a thin layer of bondo, so sanding shouldnt be that bad.
Did the 'Stuff absorb the resin, or did the resin melt the foam?

Is there a difference?

I guess that I cannot say that I have not done anything, I went through one can, but I am going to study instead of continuing the process.

No, really! I mean it this time!

I did a quick search because I remembered that there were different types of resin and foam and that some work together and others do not. I remember someone putting resin on his foam and it melted the outside a quarter-inch or so. Anyway, have you read this? http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...oam-21668.html
