How this FG work was done.
After a week of listening to the mids and tweeters in different positions and angles their places were finalized.
First of all you need to get spacers made for your drivers which you wish to put in the designated place, make sure they are as perfect a fit as possible.
After that is done, you need to make proper markings on the Kicks/A pillars/where ever you're going to position your drivers.
Cut neat holes as desired for a flush mount or angled position.
Use the glue gun to place the spacer in place(the cut holes), check the position using a level meter, if satisfied, strengthen the glue bond, if not, reposition.
After that is done use the old t-shirt to cover the area where you're going to apply the FG resin and matt. Use Elfy or GYMSA on the edges of the contact points where the cloth comes in contact with the plastic part (A pillar/Kicks). Make sure the t-shirt has enough stretch to give a good strengthy finish.
Mix the cobalt in Resin and pour in some drops of hardner (the amount of hardner to be used depends on the quantity of the resin, the more the hardner the quicker the solution would become tacky and dry).
Use the brush to apply onto the desired area, after that apply a layer of matt and then again apply the resin solution to it, leave to dry in sun. Once it becomes tacky, use a heat gun or a hair dryer to dry it completely.
Give it to a trusty painter for base prep and paint.
