I have read a lot of the questions on here but have not seen the one I need. I am wanting to do a set of 98 ford f150 door panels. I have found what materials to use, but how do you go about fastening the material to the door panel before you glass it. I want to smooth out the panels andclose in the pockets. I just don't know how to fasten the material before glassing it so it will stay put. Any help would great.

i assume you are talking about fleece or grill cloth. if you are going to be wrapping the material around the backside of the panel you can use concat cement or CA glue on the backside of the panel. if you need to attach it just to the front of the panel, then just use CA glue. check out www.fiberglassforums.com.

Hot glue works as well

Do any of you know of any pics of ford door panels that were fiberglassed. Or maybe a site that has pictures of them. I need some ideas.
