Fiber glass repairs can be divided into major and minor
repairs. Minor repairs are small surface imperfections,
small holes, dents, etc. Major repairs are those which
require the use of the fiber glass cloth for its reinforcing
qualities.
Minor Repairs
Plastic Solder (or equivalent) or the epoxy and filler
(or their equivalent) from the Reinforced Plastic Repair
