she's off the ute.. tomorrow i will relocate it outside so it can bake in the sun for a few days and really harden up the resin like rock(as advised by a fibreglassing expert).
then i can sand out any big imperfections, give it a coating of spray putty to cover any little imperfections, then paint it..
this was the initial trim so i could take it off the ute. i have since trimmed it to the black line and put the final dress layer of glass..
i put the pinch weld seal on to give you a better idea of the finished edge.. although it is only on the initial cut, so it will actually sit about 10mm higher on the final product.
now i can start cleaning the ute and preparing it to fit the finished lid..
i'll post more photos soon..
