can someone please tell me what the best epoxy is for fairing cracks and where i might find it?
thanks, ron

 

no epoxy. You need to do extensive body work to fix cracks. You need resin, and fiberglass woven mat and you need to re-enforce both sides of the crack with 2 layers of each. Then its body filler and sanding. That's the right way to do it but if you want to rig it up try JB Weld, thats about the strongest stuff you can use, and its sand-able when dry.

 

the crack is small so i did not waunt to repaint and sand so i will try the JB weld. thanks

 

plastic weld. it is an epoxy for plastic it works great on farings but you have to groove out the faring and drill a hole at the end of the crack to keep it from spreading. it is sandable when dry. good if you are repainting, not so good for patch work. in the same aisle as jb weld its a two part epoxy.

 

Loctite #380 Instant adhesive also know as Black Max to some. Don't remember exactly where I bought it, sorry. It does quite well for small cracks and such. It also set pretty fast as well

 

my rear tail fairing cracked to pieces and i lost a corner, i actually made the corner up with this stuff, its awesome ! made by Versa Chem , its called plastic welder part number #47809
