It all depends on what I'm trying to make.

Something curvy - Grille cloth, you can pull it tight and make transitions very neat. Port flares, tweeter cups or anything organic looking

Something relatively flat - Trunk liner (non-backed), when pulled tight it does not cup. Gentle or simple curves it is the best to work with. Side panels, sub boxes.

Combination of the two and general use – Fleece, it pulls in all directions but does have a tendency to cup, it will require duraglass and bondo to make it straight/flat. Works great if you make a skeleton first. Subwoofer tubs, curvaceous trunk/hatch panels.

As DWVW said, reinforcement (fiberglass) will be necessary if panel/part is required to support or add structure.

Solar Fleece?

Is that the stuff you wear when you're traveling in space?

I thought it was Polar fleece.

Sorry Dukk, too funny [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]
