yes and no

the resin might detach from the plastic over time since the plastic is smooth, therefore, the resin won't "grip". You can help adhesion by sanding the plastic a bit before applying resin. This should give the resin a little more "grip" to hold onto the plastic. Then to be more secure, screw down the plastic onto the fiberglass/foam
