Been searching the archives for awhile now. tried “wood fin repair”, “fix wood fin”, “wood fin ding” and just about every other combo of those and similiar words. I’ve seen the topic before but can’t find it now.
Got a ding on one of my fins last night from a reef in LaJolla. Marine ply, chunk of glass missing, maybe a 1/4 inch deep by 3/8 wide on the tip. Damage down to but not including the wood. Wood got wet but for only a min or so. Plan on just making sure its dry, and glassing it over. Dilemma is how do I “fill” the missing glass. Don’t want to use q-cell as I don’t want the repair to be opaque. Chop up some 4 oz and mix it in some sanding resin before glassing over?
