Yeah man thats the cool thing about resin, you can just sand it down to how you like it. Ive never glassed a board before but Ive patched countless holes in boards (surfboards) and you pretty much sand and clean the area so there is no debris and pour the stuff on. Once you mold it to your liking let dry and sand it down... _________________ - Mead-Hall |

Are you gonna keep the bottom wood? Or you gonna just fiberglass the foam?
Looking at the ruff surface....you want to wacht out you don't trap any big airbubbles in between the fiberglass and the foam...... _________________ Never winch in shallow water.... |
