The method that we will use to refinish your damaged section will be to first assess how far the damage actually spreads as some effected delaminated areas may not be easily visible, but can partly be identified by other factors like sound. Once determined we will cut away all the damaged area and begin prepping the surfaces. It is always best to work from the inside of the vessel as it allows for a cleaner external look and will match the same initial construction method of the rest of the boat, however we understand that it may be for any number of specific reasons necessary to work on a hull from the outside, and are readily equipped to handle these jobs as well. Next will be to dewax and grind all edges for a clean and structural bond, followed by creating a mask and mold to prevent run off and keep the work area contained. Then we will work on the application of the cloth, resin, and bonding catalyst, laying everything up with a perfect gelcoat match. Finalization will include sanding, polishing, and finishing the effected area. We guarantee that once we are refinished with your beloved watercraft, you will find it near impossible to point out where your damages were previously.
