Hi I want to make a fiberglass enclosure for some kick pods and a couple of subs. Can anyone pass down any knowledge about what is the best way of building enclouseres out of glass.

I have heard that it can be a great type of enclosure BUt I have tried once and it was not the pretiest thing ever.
Is there a web site that can tell you step by step how to mix the resin or what type of glass is better the mat or cloth or like I have seen some people even use box carpeting material.

Any advice would be great.

I've used just about everything you could imagine at some point lol
fiberglassing is a blast.. just remember to wear gloves! that stuff is sticky as heck, and a real b*tch to get off your hands if ya get into it.
with gloves and a smock though it's not bad.
you want a breathing mask too.. don't want to breathe in fiberglass. trust me.
that crap can shred your lungs.

its not really too hard to use.. just messy.
