Where DIY goes astray

There is no point in doing a gel or fiberglass repair unless done correctly.  Additionally, you’ll want any repair to match with the surrounding area for aesthetics. Grinding for a fiberglass repair should be done with a 12:1 slope for correct bonding area. So, a 1/4” repair needs a 6” crater, 3” on either side. Bump the repair up to 3/8” and you’ll need a 9” crater. Now you have to sand, mix resin, apply the fabric, sand, buff, paint and more. Could you do all that with the confidence each layer is correct? The curing is done in the right environment? Smooth as if there never was a crack? Probably not. Call Garcia Boat Detailing instead.
