Plastics Repair

[BIG MAC]

Take it off the subframe twist the subframe until it holds the fairing straight and the cracks closed as best they can...abrade the inside surface of the fairing and lay in some glassfibre tissue painting it into position with resin/gel from a kit. do this a couple of times, leaving to set up each time and don't worry too much about filling the cracks on the outside make sure any material doesn't run through. From the front use a powerfile or dremel to abrade the edges of the cracks to a chamfer then fill with glassfibre resin. replace all parts on the bike making sure no stress cracks - once happy flat the area with 400 wet and dry (wet with a tiny amount of washing up liquid in the water) Fill the area with a thin film of flexible car body filler and rub down once set = same 400 idea again. Gently abrade the paintwork in the immediate vicinity with a grey scotchbrite pad then TCut the entire panel. Mask out the bike using plastic sheets and paper blow in a little primer in thin coats over the repairs and wet flat it once dry...Paint in solid colour then lacquer Make sure not to paint up to masking edges where there is going to be a blending in, apply any decals required then another couple of coats of lacquer 'dusting it into toward the edges).  Once its all set up give it a good T CUT and wax to blend in. I have repaired loads this way...Not as good as Deefers plastic welding but adequate
