I'm currently building a fiberglass enclosure, I have glassed the matting over the fleece and i'm now at the point of deciding on body filler. Should I use rage gold for the main filler?

I have heard that also. I'm asking if should I do all the filling with Rage Gold or use marglas and then rage for the top coat?

are you looking to paint to match the exterior?
or just smooth it out a bit to carpet?

Well this is my first attempt with fleece.
I found stretching the fleece with the fewest seams possible was very hard.

I glassed in several stages and ended up used a gallon and a half on the fleece alone inside and out. The fleece was still bending slightly on the large front and back flat surfaces, so I decided to mat on the outside for strength and thickness.

How many layers of mat do you guys usually add?
