wet fiberglass
« on: July 19, 2014, 05:27:16 AM »
I glassed parts of my board with some fiberglass resin last night and left the board in a covered area to dry.  A storm came in and the rain must have gone sideways.  My board is wet this morning and I did not get a proper set on the fiberglass anyway.  It is still tacky and now wet with water.  Am I screwed?  If so, what could be a good suggestion for repair?

Ah, forget it.  I just ripped it all off and wiped it with acetone.  Not worth hour of extra work to get it right.  Glad I did.  When I took the fiberglass off, I was able to wring out the water!
