6SICK6: Molding a wald spoiler
As some of you know, im a painter at a bodyshop in AZ. A few weeks ago i started working on molding a rep wald spoiler for another member on the forum(silec) on his IS250. I know theres plenty of threads on molding these spoilers but i figured i would document my progress for everyone anyways.
This is how it fit just sitting on the trunk
Starting to grind down the paint to metal to achieve the best adhesion possible

Taping off the area around the trunk to keep it a little cleaner and keep the 2 part adhesive from getting on the car.
The adhesive i used to adhere the spoiler to the trunk. Made to use on FRP, which the spoiler is made out of.
Grind down the back of the spoiler before adding the adhesive to ensure the best adhesion possible.
SORRY ABOUT THE CRAPPY PHONE PICS BTW

There you have it guys. Feel free to ask any questions. The whole molding process took about 15 hours total. Pretty much sucked the whole time, although it might have been more tolerable if i weren't in the middle of 115 degree summer haha. I would have added some pics of the whole car with it all done but I wanted to leave something for silec to post about his own car haha. So everyone expect silec's pics to be up soon! Thanks for looking
