Hopefully I can explain this well enough to get the forums help.

I created a form out of fiberglass in the back of my truck in a storage compartment.  Right now it looks like and elongated bowl.  What I need to do now is one of two things:  Attach and MDF top to it and/or Create MDF rings and attach fleece to the top

How do I adhere either the MDF board or fleece to the existing fiberglass mold and how do I insure it is completely sealed?

Thanks

I leveled and scribed the mdf sides as close as I could to the mold. Then I squared up the sides and screwed them together. Next I drilled marked how I wanted the sides to sit on the mold, drilled pilot holes through the mold and into the mdf. I then layed down a couple wet strips of fg where the sides would be, flipped it upside down and screwed the two together while the glass was still wet. After that I put 2-3 layers attaching the mold and mdf. When it was dry I flipped it on its side and poored resin to fill the remaining gap between the 2, and layed a couple layers of fg on the outside, doing one side at a time and letting it dry before moving on. Go to my thread on the integra if you want some pictures.
