Hey, I was just wondering if there was some other kind of material I could use which was thinner but just as stretchy. Fleece adds to much thickness to what I'm doing. I had some problems with my first dash project, so this time I wanna go with sumthing thinner. I heard grill cloth works, but the fabric store doesn't carry it. Does nylon work? lemme know! Thanx

pretty much any material that will soak up a litle resin and become stiff. Don't use the material for strength ... that's what the glass is for ... use iot for structure.

Try a tee shirt.

you can get a couple layers of grill cloth to hold a plug for a 12" then rienforce it from the inside. At this momemnt, i am using grill cloth to hold two Type-R 10"'s and two 420's

you might want to check out your local stero shop if they don't have any in stock, they should be able to order it. All cloth will soak up resin so just use a old shirt.
