Cutting and remolding Slosh Tubz

Anyone have pics or tips for cutting Slosh Tubz and laying down new fiberglass to clear clutch and brake masters?

Re: Cutting and remolding Slosh Tubz

Make sure your tire won't be hitting the tub if you create an indentation in it. Then go to YouTube and watch some videos on working fiberglass.

Cutting is the easy part. Shaping the mat is the hard part. Go to Home Depot grab some duct tape and some metal pipe strapping, it comes on a small roll. Cut lengths of the strapping and shape it to the profile you want and tape it to the underside of the tub to support the fiberglass mat. You may want to cover the pipe strap in masking tape or lay a piece of paper over it so it doesn't get stuck to the fiberglass. You can sand masking tape or paper off the glass, not metal.
