WOW...this one looks rally good in regards to some person obviously either was fixing it by themselves and did not know jack squat...or did not want to pay a person enough money to do it right.

Call me so we can go over what your intentions are now with me seeing what you have.

Yes he most certainly was, and the bad thing is, he did such a good job doing it wrong that it might have taken the same amount of time to do it right lol!

I know Dub will chime in
I would remove all the old repairs first
If the bonding strips need replaced - replace them and bond them back in with Bonding Panel adhesive
Remove all the old fiberglass cloth / plastic filler, etc....

Yes sir, we talked about it at length yesterday, once I get to that section I’m going to break everything down into small sections, and do one thing at a time until everything is correctly done!!
