fiberglass backing ftw.

That's how i'm shaving my antenna and trim recesses. Glass mat, glass fiber hair and then bondo leveling filler and then glazing.

Glass mat works well to use behind the hole, I wouldn't have used alot of hardener. A longer cure time makes it stronger and more uniform i feel, not enough makes the **** run. I had dents all over my last car that i had to pull, fill and level. Come to think of it i didn't have much fun but it turned out well and you could not tell it had ever had dings/dents of any kind.

I'm not a pro. I'm not a noob but definately not a pro.


On your own personal car, if it lasts more than a few years it's damn good enough.
