Fibreglass Repair

[lingeringsoul]

Just after some advise from the general public on how fibreglass repair kits work. I cracked my front bar on track a week ago and I've decided to repair it.

The kit has fibreglass sheet, a tin of catalyse and tube of hardener..........and a brush.

I would assume you cut the sheet to appropriate size, mix hardener with catalyst and brush on to the damaged area and let it harden?

yeh mix catalyst and resin, put the sheet over the area and dab the resin on with a brush, dont use strokes, dab it on. i cant remember why or even if im right lol. maybe someone should clarify?

depending on how bad it is, you might be better off putting it along the back or the damaged area, then when its all solid, bog up the front, sand it back and paint it pretty again

I would sand everything down, then patch it up wit filler - then get sand paper and sand down it all out smoothly... then get it repainted.... primed, 2 coats etc. Good luck.

use a foam roller it works a treat. you can get them pretty cheap. you have to make sure you use plenty of mix and rub it in good to avoid bubbles under fibre sheets...
