I see in the post that shows "how to make a fiberglass enclosure" he has the actual enclosure, makes it semi-smooth, covers it with tape/foil and then makes a cover for it....im wondering, why not just smooth out the actual enclosure and then paint that? why make an enclosure then a cover for it?

I am kind of new at fiberglassing enclosure that are fancy looking so im just wondering, any info or advice is appreciated

AS I stated in the post :

I did this because I wanted a flush look for the amplifier and the subwoofer. I couldn't flush the amplifier because the mounting holes were wider than the face of the amp. By making a cover peice I was able to cover the screws and flush the amplifier face.

Say, Jeff, it's a beautiful project!!! I'm just confused about one aspect - Is the cover actually attached to the enclosure or does it just sit on top of it? Thanx.
