yup u can either lay fg cloth over it or i know SEM makes a spray on product you can sand down that will give the same affect. its basically like a super high build primer. u could even maybe pour a thin layer of just resin down. thats more likely to crack but if its thin it'll work

if its a show car thats cool. on a daily driver it would just be blah.

goodluck with the project man. btw fg rules! i love using the stuff. i purposly come up with projects just so i can use it(car related or not) lol

if you want to "glass" your interior panels, I would only do a few pieces not the whole dash and ****. I guess it could look nice if you don't go overboard with it, like the Celica for example. I have seen the Celica before in person, he has a lot of money wasted in that thing. It has been on Nopivision before too, and he said it had nearly 250k invested in that between him and all the sponsors. I would be afraid to admit that.

Fishman, does have some mean *** stereo installs though.
