soooooo...it's back to the designing board, and off the chopping/for sale block?

i know this was a while ago, but im looking at that mesh that you have, and was wondering how you planned to use that to make a mold...i would think that you just tape over the dash, wax it, then put the glass over it.

the only thing i can think is that it's some sort of reactive mesh that you will drape over and tape to the desired shape, then you spray on some sort of activating agent, and then it will harden to that shape and then you can glass it outside of the car. let me know, cause im interested in glassing
