fiberglass to weather strip

Remove the weather stripping from the trunk and mask off the entire trunk area where the weather stripping was. Have all the areas inside the trunk that you want to have showing framed with MDF( amps, subs or processors )  so that you can attach fleece to the frame and also to the masked off area of the trunk surround.

Place a large enough peice of fleece into the trunk so that it will cover the area where you have the framed up equipment and also enough to cover the trunk opening. Center the fleece in the trunk and attach the fleece to the MDF frames. Pull the fleece tight around the trunk surround and re-insert the weather stripping with the fleece underneath it. Pull tight where needed and then start appying your first layer of resin to the fleece. Only resin up to the weather stripping but do not touch the weather stripping. Do 2 layers of resin and this will give it enough strength to remove the weather stripping and still save the form of the trunk. Take more resin now and apply it to the area of the surround that did not have any resin on the fleece and after you have the fleece soaked in, take some plastic or Saran Wrap as a barrier between the weather stripping and the soaked fleece. Allow to dry and repeat process once again until the outer edge is hard enough. In the meantime start fiberglassing the area inside the trunk and use about 2-3 layer of glass to ensure proper strength for such a large area.

For the area that you have under the weather stripping, you can probably get away with 2 layers on the outside of the project and use another 2 layers on the backside of the project to add more strength. You don't want the outer edge of the project warping on you at this point otherwise you will need to cut and refiberglass sections.

I know of a guy up in Courtney that can hook you up with some blue resin by the 16 gallon pail for cheap
