Fiberglass Repair

Subject: Fiberglass Repair
by BillH on 2013/10/14 20:48:51

Here's how to repair a fiberglass panel the correct way.

The fender has been cut with an air sawsall but this would also apply to a crack.

The alum angles in the pic are to keep the panel in place since the fender was pulled back 1/4 inch and there's a bit of tension on it (the crack would widen up if these were removed.

The first thing to do is V-grind the glass out to 1 1/2 to 2 inches on BOTH sides if you can get to the back side. The very edges of the crack should be paper thin and you need to expose virgin glass for a good bond.
