ABS with fibreglass

Normal polyester resin will bond to the plastic for a reasonable amount of time. For a better job glass it up as per usual but use 2 part epoxy resin. Scratch up the rear of the fairing so as the resin/matting can key into the surface. Normal automotive fine bog can be used to fill any imperfections on the presented side. Ideally when finished, black flowcoat should be brushed onto the rear of the glassed portion to provide a hard, weatherproof seal. Only down side to epoxy resin is having to sand between coats if resin is allowed to dry. Wax free polyester resin does not need sanding between coats. Paul.
