O.k, so now that we've actually you know, prepped and filled it and it's nice and hard,
you want to make sure that it's really hard, I mean if it's too, if it's not hard enough
then it's just going to gum up and actually come out because it hasn't had a chance to
bond to the foam. Now, we're going to sand it flush. So, let's get our machine and we'll
let it rip. Let's plug it in real quick. So, I'm using fifty grit which is a nice, you
know, a nice sandpaper that will make that stuff go right away, so here we go. We just
took the block and kind of flattened it out a bit, you know. And, if you notice, one of
the really important steps in this process is that even though the ding is only you know,
the size of a silver dollar, we want to make sure that we prep an area around it, at least
three to four inches around that circular area; because what we want to do is get the
bond outside of the real strong part of the surfboard. And, that's one of those steps
like I said, if you do them all the right way, it's just going to work out better for
a stronger repair in the end. So, now what we'll do, is we'll grab some fiberglass and
we'll go ahead and laminate some fiberglass.
