I’m getting better at fixing boards. At the end of day it is foam, glass and resin — you can repair it. It also gives you the opportunity to know your board better, know the shaper behind the board, and learn how to avoid having to 3 or 4 days down time with your favourite board. I only use Solarez for on-the-road emergency repairs.
Day 1 sand, apply Q-cell
Day 2 sand, apply glass and resin
Day 3 sand, apply hot-coat
Day 4 sand.
I’m sure shapers with the right formula can do this quicker or between fully curing, I haven’t figured that out yet. Thank the Surf Gods for Q-cell — love this light s**t.
