Just made some wall panels for a shower enclosure (refused to pay £150 a panel plus fitting kit
)
I have a 2.1m x 1.2m double glazed unit that I use for infusing flat sheet.
Sprayed down some white gelcoat, once tacked off I layed down one layer of resin rich 450grm CSM. Whilst still wet I placed a 2m x 1m sheet of 9mm MDF (scored the face with a Stanley knife to aid bonding) onto the wet CSM and weighted it down.
Once cured the sheet was demoulded and cut to size. Result one mirror finish wall panel.
Cost : materials £50 plus two hours labour.
