So i am mounting a 6 pc fiberglass kit to my car, my plan is to use rivnuts with #8 countersunk screws to hold it in place and then use epoxy and http://www.westsystem.com/ss/406-colloidal-silica to bond it to the metal
If this procedure is correct about how far on the fiberglass from the metal do i want to epoxy it, i was thinking maybe a quarter inch of epoxy on the metal and the same amount on the fiberglass
As well how thick of a layer do i want to use
The panels will be attached to the door, fenders and quarter panel and i am assuming i would want to put a bit more on the door panel due to the stress from open and close
This is a DD
I posted a while back and was recommended six 10 epoxy, finally got around to working on the vehicle with everything sanded and prepped now and i figured mixing the resin with 406 would essentially be the same
