Elmers waterproof wood glue , and wooden paint stirring sticks ( free at most 
places) from the auto paint supply store.  Flatten the panels somewhere with 
stacks of books on them for a while some place safe first.   They will 
flatten out after ever so slightly dampening them before heaping the books on 
them.  ( same process for early Saab rear deck/parcel shelf)Once flat again 
the paint sticks can be strategically cut to fit and reinforce the rear side of 
the cardboard panels.   Cover the paint sticks with some clear plastic wrap 
and pile the books on again.  That keeps the moisture of the glue from warping 
the panels while the glue dries.   This should preserve the panels , do an 
invisible reinforcement ( once in place) and keep humidity from making them 
curl again.ChuckSent from my LG Mobile------ Original message------From:

Spridgets;Cc: Subject:[Spridgets] Bugeye boot panelsGood Morning all,

so I took a look at the inside of the boot and the cardboard panels that were 
so nice when installed many years ago have slumped and look terrible.  I was 
wondering if any of you fine folk had or had considered using fiberglass resin 
to reinforce them?  

My thought is to get them flat-ish and paint the backside with resin.

What say you all?
