My "Sound Guy" I took with me to check them out before buying them, said

it
would be worthwhile to strip the vinyl, and spray them with fibreglass
resin.


Its a little more than just a spray AFAIK, i used to work for a car audio
shop making enclosers, kick pods, panels, bezels, etc.. out of fiberglass
and there was alot of preparation and mixing involved and if not done
right
it can be a mess, its also very hazzardess your health and is deadly if
the
right precautions arent taken.

Now, dont get discouraged, if you feel you can do it, then i would get
intouch with a fiberglass supply company, i dont know of any in the UK and
the one where i got my stuff from says they wont ship out of the US.


Take it to a surfboard shop and have them do the work. They do it all day
long, and they don't charge a lot.

My question, though, is whether anyone has tried the spray-on truck bed
liner material. Around here, lots of pickup trucks are driving around
with
this spray-on polymer stuff in the bed, and there are places all over the
place that are applying it. It looks like just the thing to stiffen an
A-7.
