If not reusing the old Skin .. question ..

Post by Jasper Windvane »

On my Bristol, which I cut into today.. I doubt I would ever be able to
reuse the old sking. The rood is not level for one problem..

After the balsa ?? What material and sequence should I use/follow.

I don't have much of any fiberglass experience so ..

one more thing;; the bottom balsa, when it came up pulled away some .. very little .. thin .. looks like "mat" the fibers are showing.

Should I put a small piece of fiberglass on this spot before I lay in the balsa..

Anyway,, the material, sequence, any how to's,, for a deck reseal.

Thanks.. all of you are great.
