Are those plastic cups?!?! NO!! Go back and pick up some UNWAXED PAPER cups. Once mixed the catalyst will melt those plastic cups!

Oh, and good luck! I'm building my second set of kicks as I type. (waiting for resin to cure)

i would use fleece over fg mat. for me it dries stronger and holds its shape better with 1 layer....use matte if you like fumes lol

i just read all these posts lol.

yes the cups did melt so i ended up using some of moms Gladware tupperware ;P. And yeah i realized i needed bondo spreaders right when i got home, but i havent bondo'ed anything so i'll run and pick a few up tomorrow. I got the molds all done just waiting for the right side to dry, got pix of everything so those will be up shortly.

Picked up the LT960/4 today and ordered the Atlas today from InhumanAcura (TYVM!) squeak is gonna come down and help me setup the soundstage since i have no idea how to do it. Pix in a couple hours!
