Got cracked fairings?

[His Dudeness]

Try q bond it works great. It's a plastic filler powder and a glue that react together and make really strong joins. It's simple to use way easier than plastic welding. You just open out the crack, then add the filler powder into it, then drip the glue on, let it dry and sand it flat. Works great and it's really strong

Mum bought a set of that for the boat after being wowed by it at the boat show.

It ended up being pretty disappointing, and died in the pot.

If you want to have fairings fixed, talk to Deefer, he's a professional!

You don't mix this stuff seperately. It goes straight into the crack. Dries in about 5 seconds so if you mixed it seperatley it'd never work. It's just as good as a plastic weld. I wouldn't put the link up if it wasn't.

Fair enough. Is it an epoxy or polyester system, or something completely different?

How does it hold up to shocks and fatigue? As in, once glued, that's the strongest bit of the fairing, or potential to fail 3 months down the line?

I haven't looked into what's in it. Don't think there's any chance of it failing as a crack repair on a fairing. It feels as strong if not stronger than the original plastic but I've not done any tests on it so that's just my opinion from fixing the crack!
