Problem with fiberglass.

Okay, this fiberglass enclosure i've made is driving me up a wall. I currently have six layers of material (four cloth, two mat) and i STILL have air leaks. Can anyone think of a method to seal the leaks without putting on more layers? i'm sick of the smell and i'm ready to just buy a pre-made enclosure...

Just 1-2 layers should prevent any air leaks. You usually only do more for rigidity and stiffness purposes. Less ghetto fiberglass

Sorry guys, i got frustrated with it today and took a sledgehammer to it. I'm just going to get a bassforms enclosure and be done with it. It was a nice learning experience, but i don't think i would ever get all the leaks patched and have it look presentable.
