Just bought some really thick fleece.  It's the one way stretch kind.  Goin to use that for now.  I'll determine later if it's enough or if I need some glass to go over it.

You can get plush felt at fabric stores. I get mine at Hobby Lobby which has a fabric department. It's $3.49 a yard.

HottAccord yeah it's new.  I'm redoing my box. (trashing the old and building a new one).  I'm kinda hesitant about using just the fleece.  It's thick and will absorb a ton of resin but I'm not sure it'll hold the pressure of a 10" sub (not high power, bout 300 watts rms).  What do you think just fleece or add a layer of fg (like one 6 oz. layer)?

Oh I wouldnt just use fleece/resin on an enclosure no matter what.  You will still need some reinforcement like FG mat.  If you find that to be a pain, try the Resin & Aerosil or Cabosil expander mix as opposed to FG mat.  The results are incredible.  Just make sure you get at least 1/4" thick inside the box, this stuff dries hard and solid!
