but its really easy to use, get rubber gloves, this mat, and fiber glass resin, a gallon bucket, and a stir stick, all can be obtained at your local hardware store.

mix the resin with the hardener, (a less than a small coffee of resin to the tube of hardener)
stir it in the gallon,

have the mat pre, cut to your wheel well trim
after the risen is mixed submerge all the mat in the gallon bucket, get the resin all over it and then apply it to the wheel well trim.
apply it to the raw metal.
if the correct amount of hardener was used it will dry in 30 minutes
if less hardener was used it will remain tacky for several days.
if to much hardener was used the fiber glass will be proned to crack.

. just a note

if you found out more hardener needed to be added but its to late, seeing its tacky now and is not drying.
get the tube of hardener and drip a little on the wheel well, over the project and with you finger rub it all over the resin, then the next day it should be well enough to sand.
if you want to build up the wheel well a little more (it being dented)
use just resin with no mat the next day, or go straight to bondo.

under heavy vibration bondo will crack, nothing can crack or destroy fiber glass if the resin is mixed right.

one thing, after fiber matting the top of the wheel trim cut another piece of mat and put it on the inner side of the wheel well.
work fast when applying the mat soaked with resin, it will want to set up with in minutes. but when finished your car is now rust proof.
