That is some really different stuff.... I've never seen any of those materials that would allow you to go direct to cloth without showing halos in and around the repair. I guess the added level of fiber right in the mix must eliminate that. If I didn't know better I'd swear Lord (the Fursor people) was making this for them..... Should be a really strong repair.....

One of the worst things you run into with kit cars is gaps at edges. I could see building this out and wrapping those edges. Used to have to build out with short hair filler, then go over it with mat/glass build up. I should have a new project here in the next year. I'll try and give a review on it.

Progress has been slow due to the owner changing his overall plans. Has me stripping the truck, removing brackets, fender supports, muffler stack, rear exhaust pipe under cab, bolts protruding from roof of cab, etc.
Ended up stripping the interior so he can clean or have new panels made.

Did get the hood painted.
