Surfboard Restoration - Heat Dameged
Просмотров 26011 месяцев назад
Together with my daughter Giselle, we restore a beautiful modern epoxy DHD surfboard that was left in a car in the hot sun and sustained bad de lamination. We used epoxy resin, fibreglass, Q cell and spray paint to give it a second life. It was Giselles first time repairing boards.
Surfboard Restoration Al Merrick Step by Step
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.Год назад
My 16 year old son Elijah chose this beaten up Al Merrick from a pile of boards left for dead as his second board to restore. It had a damaged nose, several dings, a busted FCS2 fin box and broken grip pad. He used resin, fibreglass, expanding foam, Cabosil, together with the FCS2 jig to fix the fin box, and spray paint to make it look and feel like a fully restored newer board. Enjoy the video...

      @@gregssurfboardrestoration you're welcome ! 😉 BUT I can (want to) explain my point of view: Your use of these wood picks wasn't necessary, and as the bottom of the board was still in good shape, you should have relied on it to maintain a nice nose rocker. By tearing it apart, and more, with the picks, you've lost the reference of the rocker, and you haven't been able to build it back. Sorry, it's my opinion, as a rider/builder/restorer. Oh, by the way, this expanding foam looks very difficult to use, and makes more of a mess than anything else, don't you think so ?

    Wow dude thank you for doing this. I live on a Caribbean island with no access to materials without taking a ferry ride.

Really appreciate it.

    • @gregssurfboardrestoration
      @gregssurfboardrestoration Год назад

      Bigger cavities like fin boxes and large dings it’s best to use use foam because surfboards are made from foam, keeps the board light. You’re not pouring heaps of resin into the cavity. I do use resin/qcell for small dings and usually a thin layer over the expanding foam before fiberglass

    It's great that you explained the issues that you had, I learnt a lot. Also, using the foam to cover that before puttong the glass on it is something i want to try next one i do. What I would have done differently is to paint the black lines instead of masking them to see the original ones. The end result is much better than I thought at the beginning.
