Any way to recover from this disaster?

[orphe 10+ year member]

Long story short, I knew a guy that said he knew how to fiberglass. I’d figured leave it to someone with experience plus I didn’t have the time. All I had to do was pay for the parts and $30 for labor. Well he did the job and FUUUUged it up real good. He could have used bondo or something….. I honestly could have done a waaaay better job myself. The paint job was decent and so was the top, but there are too many lumps and bumps by the speakers. Any way to recover from this disaster?

I don’t wanna throw away the box because it pounds pretty hard!! Even for a sealed box its awesome!!

sand and bondo? maybe cover it with carpet

Yep, carpet it . Or sand off the paint, fill the imperfections with filler. Then prime and paint it again. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I am wondering why MDF wasn't used. It would have been stronger, and last time i checked you can paint MDF????

yeah, why fiberglass a shape that can made with MDF in half the time...

 

[orphe 10+ year member]

MDF was used... The top is mdf. I just wanted the front to look Unique. thats why wanted to use fiberglass to accentuate the curves and give it a different look...

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit... Yeah I'm guessing it was a noob glasser. Carpet it and it would look pretty good.
