Being lazy today and planing a paint job on the EVO 97 EG. One saddle bag has a Deep scratch 1/4"wide 2-3" long. The glass is feathered up so not all the way trough but 1/2 the thickness or so. What little fiberglass repair I have done I NOT enjoy doing. I am wondering if 3m panel repair would be ok to use? Anyone used this or something similar to repair fiberglass? I'll see if I can get a pic off what I'm asking about using. Open to suggestions do's and don'ts

Thanks WP

Ok here is a link to what I saw used to repair a cracked and gouged outer fairing. It cured and was sanded and painted. Came out great best I could tell.

Just use bondo.

 

From the title I thought you wanted to fix your wife!!!!

 

I gave up on that a good while ago
Not that she needed much. That's why I married her.
A chef in the kitchen, very much a proper lady and well the rest is just for me to know

Just plain ol bondo huh. Did give it a good look earlier, its not cracked thru just a bit on the deep side. 1/16 " deep are so.

Thanks WP

 

Yup, Bondo or "Bog" as we call it here is designed for that very purpose. You will need to grind the feathers back and give it a "V" cross section if you want a flawless finish...and use knifing stopper for the final stage before you primer it.

 

Think I understand the other but could you please elaborate on the knife thing
It's been Years since i took on a project like this
Thanks WP
