Ding Repair... Never Ends Does it???

This is the latest ding repair job I got asked to do.  Two foilers I know collided - the board lost to the foil.

These boards are made with almost no laminate.  This one has a single layer of carbon.  The paint (maybe gelcoat) layer is way thicker than the carbon.  On to the repair...

After a couple of days of drying, I cut out the uneven laminate areas.

Then I grafted on some EPS with Gorilla Glue.

This afternoon I used the planer to remove the bulk.  Then the surform to get it dialed in.

I had enough daylight so I went ahead and laminated the carbon and fiberglass cap sheets on to the new foam.

I'll let this cure overnight then sand down the lap and fair it all in.
