I'm going to retrofit my broadband traps with FRK. My traps are made of rigid fiberglass or something very similar, wrapped with some fabric. Each trap is three 2" slabs stuck together.

How many layers of FRK should I apply to each trap? Maybe 3 or even 4 layers, one on each side of all the slabs? Or maybe just one layer, on the side of the traps that's facing the room? My guess is that more layers would be better, to help reflect the mids and highs more, but I'd like to hear some advice before doing the work.
