"fibre Glass" Were To Start

[billabong-john]

I’m thinking of attempting to repair the front bumper of my R32(the birth of my son has made cash flow a little tight to say the least) and I really need some advise on how to go about applying and smoothing fiber glass to get the job done.

I know there’s instructions included with the fiberglass, but there’s nothing like the advice given by people with first hand experience in the stuff

Any suggestions would be great thanks

Depends what sort of crack? compound, chip, or just a fracture?

I'd actually recommend plastibond for just small fixes, as it's less stuffing around - and quite strong.

With fibreglass it's all in the mixing.. I'd just use a spatula. In the end, as long as you get the correct coverage, it will all be sanded back anyhow to the proper shape.

My suggestion is this, bring it down to the gold coast and i will fix it for u. i have all the product needed except your colour. i will undercoat the touchup amd make it as good as new. (the perks of being in the fibreglass industry). get back to me if your interested. scotchies would help the cause

No problem. I head down to gold coast almost every weekend anyway. I'll arrange the pics and pm them to you later
