For some practice Id like to fill in the engine panel hole from the previous placement of the panel
< its covered in wood sandings needs a clean
Id like to fill it in with fiberglass just not sure of the resin to use and making sure it has a nice exterior finish when its done as Ive a couple of other holes to fill later on and need to learn
Any advice taken on board
Polyester resin for this would be fine. Are you going to be standing on it at any stage?
not the vertical it also has a teak foot step on the horizontal
you can see the teak foot plate in the above
I bought a fibreglass kit from bunnings also a fibreglass roller, a litre of acetone for prep and clean up..
Sandpaper, maybe chopped matting to fill gaps?
I read a few how to articles just to be sure..
I patched a foot long burst seam of my under floor water tank with just 3 layers of glass matting done at same time, but done when it was warmer than now.. holding well. Just do it
Youtube Haydn fantastic stuff on there
Did it turned out ok ha to use my heat gun to cure it but all good now
Nearly ready for two pack I still have to fill and repair the hole from the old engine loom piping left hand top corner
