DIY Custom Fiberglass Enclosure
A couple of people wanted me to make a write-up on how to make a Fiberglass Enclosure. Here you go…
Materials:
1 Gallon Fiberglass Resin W/ Hardener [Found This At Autozone, $33]
Bondo Filler [Autozone $14]
Sand Paper [Ace Hardware $3]
Dremel [Walmart $29]
Dremel Cutting Blades [Walmart $3.50]
Dremel Sanding Bit [Comes With Dremel Pack]
100 Plastic Cups [Dollar Store]
100 Latex Gloves [Dollar Store]
3M Glue [Walmart $8]
2 Yards Of Carpet [$4 Audio Store]
1 Yard Of Fleece [Walmart $3]
1 Ring For Your Subwoofer [Audio Store $10] Or you can make your own by buying a sheet at Home Depot for 5 bucks.
1 Flush Ring For Sub [Not sure price, probably the same as a reg. ring]
4 Yards Fiberglass Mat $16[Best to use the 2oz thick Mat] Real cheap at this websiteFiberglass Mat Link
20, 1" Painting Brushes [Walmart $10]
Aluminum Foil [Walmart $2]
2 Rolls Of Masking Tape [Walmart 1.50 ea]
Plastic Bags [Steal some from work, jk Walmart $3]
Glue Gun [Walmart $5]
Glue Sticks [Walmart $1]
Now that you have all your materials, we can begin our project.
First start off by masking the side you want to Fiberglass. I chose the left side. Here's what it looks like after it’s masked.
I have a trunk tray so it is a bit more work. My sub’s specs call for a 1.24 cub. ft. enclosure.
So I have to extend the masking over the trunk tray.
After you mask with tape, do the same with Aluminum Foil.
