such a craftsmen to be able to come up with ideas how to repair, and when something goes wrong still come up with new ideas and in the end come out with a result so accurate

Appreciate that! I think it all boils down to product knowledge at the end of the day! A system of steps is important but without the product knowledge, the steps are hard to work out.

Definitely gave old mate the deal on this one. He's a good customer, brings me a lot of work and I felt pretty stink for him that this happened. The reality is that this job probably should have been closer to the 375 mark but I made some mistakes along the way that set me back and he did wait for quite some time for me to start it. Gotta take care of the locals as much as possible!

Really great job mate! and massive appreciation for showing also your mistakes and the thought process on solving them. Also, might be a bit of oa dumb request, but could you do like a short or a video explaining how to properly do relief cuts? I have a massive difficulty doing them without cutting too much and not properly overlap or too little and it make air pockets. Cheers!!

Very complex repair but very nicely one as usual! I was a little surprised with your comment about epoxy reacting with your paint where polyester wouldn't but you've got experience I do not. Beautiful work and I'm sure your customer is very please - well worth the wait!

Chur! The trouble with epoxy is that it’s very sensitive to any outside chemicals that it might come in contact with. Oils, silicones, dusts and debris and even the chemicals within a lot of paints. Waterbased paints are the recommendation for under resin application (once it’s cured you can paint it with anything) but, even waterbased paints can cause issues so most people/manufacturers have just resorted to painting over the top once it’s cured. Epoxy is a great product but can be a nightmare to troubleshoot causes of problems because there is always so many potential reasons for the issue.

There is a very strange, global attitude around surfboard repairs and I would say I'm yet to meet a ding repairer who's paid what they deserve! Largely, it speaks to their good character, honesty and fairness though if there is a silver lining!

Beautiful & Perfect. I have a question. What is the reason for wet sanding?
@smallkinedings
7 ай бұрын
Appreciate it! Wet sanding serves a couple of purposes. It allows for a less harsh sand with the slickness of the water (some people add soap too) as you move into the finer grits of paper. Think of the coarsness of your kitchen scourer when it’s dry vs when it’s wet. Another benefit is that the water washes away and softens debris that can get stuck under your sandpaper and cause scratches that are harsher than your sand papers grit. Pieces of sand and fibreglass are probably the most common in my line of work

Haha, made me giggle! I definitely considered trying to hide that join. I decided against it in the end because I've found in the past that it can end up standing out more because finding a bright white that matches the foam (and especially the foams glittery texture) is pretty hard if not impossible and you end up having to blend it quite far down the board to attempt to hide it.

Why not use paint under epoxy? What paint , method should I use??
@smallkinedings
7 ай бұрын
Epoxy can be really sensitive to any outside chemicals you add to the mix. If you do need to paint under it then water based paint is the recommendation but if you look at 99% of epoxy boards, the paint is always on top of the finished fibreglass, not below. Not to say it can't be done, I kind of proved myself wrong in this very video, but as a whole, the industry has, rightly so, decided to avoid doing it as the risks of having problems is just too high.

Thank you. What about tinting epoxy fill?@@smallkinedings
@smallkinedings
7 ай бұрын
@@chriscoralAloha definitely an option worth keeping tints around for. This method comes in use more if the board is done with a resin tint though as most painted epoxies will be paint over glass so that final stage will hide your tinted filler. Colours like red, yellow and orange have terrible coverage characteristics though so your tinted filler can act as a base coat to help hide the repair with paint. Easier to hide red filler with red paint than white filler with red paint. 🤙
