Hi all, I'm thinking of building a 'door card' for the tailgate of my van with built in storage. this would be my first attempt at fibreglass construction so am looking for any advice on materials, chances of success etc you may be able to offer!
I plan to make one panel with two recesses to fit into the tailgate. I would then attach nets or flat panels to keep contents in place when tailgate is opened. Finish would not have to be perfect as I would cover with speaker cloth.
I imagine Fibreglass is the easiest / cheapest / best material for this? Or would it be very heavy? I guess I should use two blocks of foam (sloping sides to make it easy to remove when cured) on a ridgid board to make the mold?
How critical is temperature to the process? (winter on the way, no heating in garage)
Any advice much appreciated!
