With most extreme sports, equipment failure is just a part of the game. In surfing, dings, cracks, buckles, and scratches on your favorite stick are inevitable evils. Fixing them isn’t exactly an easy task, and taking them in for professional mending can cost more than the board’s worth. Thus, having the best tools is of paramount importance. To make things as easy as possible, I highly recommend adding SurfCo’s Quick Fix Rubberizing Ding Repair Kit to your quiver—it’s the one-stop shop of repair kits.
This great all-in-one ding repair system not only fixes surfboards, but it mends wetsuits, fins, diving equipment, bodyboards, skateboards, and snowboards. These are just the products they advertise, but the unique rubber compound can be easily applied to almost any surface. The best part is; it’s only $10. This is definitely the most versatile and affordable repair kit on the market. With only four easy steps, the SurfCo’s Rubberizing Repair Kit can be used on-the-go, anytime, and anywhere. Here’s how it works:
1) Clean and sand the damaged area. Be sure there is no water or moisture.
2) Squeeze the desired amount into the area. Use the wood applicator to spread the Quick Fix. Press out bubbles and fill in the cracks and crevices.
3) On delaminated surfaces, use a heavy weight or tape to hold down the surface while it cures.
4) Allow Quick Fix to cure overnight and 24 hours for larger repairs. Sand the area to remove any excess product.
