Söker råd om brädreparation – nosen.
Howdy,
Now it’s time to repair this ‘ding’. Originally it looked like a split through the front of the nose with a split of around 7cm on the underside of the nose (see pic). I had used stick epoxy last year to fill it so we could sail the rest of the day. I sanded this back to reveal the damage and found that a larger area just fell away. This was probably due to the previous repair that someone had done years ago. Now I am left with what you see in the pics. It’s an old board so it’s not worth spending heaps of time making it look pretty. I just need to make it strong again so it will last a couple more seasons, then give it away or heave it.
Firstly, is there a way to see if water got in and caused damage? Or is this something I would easily notice?
Secondly, I wonder if someone can confirm the process I should follow.
1. Preparation – Do I need to sand away more of the surrounding area? You can see fibreglass from a previous repair, should this come off too?
2. Place one layer of fibreglass over the whole area to seal it off.
3. Fill with something to serve as a sort of cap against the foam core? Would this be a thin strip of Divinicell or some kind of hard filler?
4. A couple layers of glass over the whole nose.
5. Paint repaired area with something to protect from sun etc. Normal spray paint or should I use something more heavy duty?Svar gärna på svenska,
Petter.

1. Ja, en mjuk avslutning, minst 2 cm, ska du ha.
2. Nej. Limma dit nytt skum och forma en ny kärna. SEN lägger du första lagret fiber.
3. Fill och fill, du ska ha ett distansmaterial mellan innersta fiberlagret och ytskiktet.
4. Du kommer förmodligen lägga på alltför mycket epoxi ändå, så två tunna lager räcker gott och då kan du slipa lite utan att förstöra undre lagret. Har du väv över 160 g räcker det med ett lager, men lägg två om du är osäker.
5. Vanlig burkspray. Jag använder två märken som är betydligt dyrare än “vanlig” burkspray, men vilken Auto-K som helst funkar. -
Excellent. Much appreciated.
