Repairing the Box

As we crashed our “cochecito” into a balcony and caused some damage on the box we needed to repair the critical part of the skin.
In Kalamata we found a shop for motor boats which could provide the materials we looked for.

Materials for 21.- Euros to repair the damage

The damage on the outer skin of the box

Polyester paste

Starting to prepare the skin for the application of the polyester paste

Mixing the paste 

Modelling the paste at the skin

Sanding first time

First result after about 40 minutes

Next day, sanding again 

Preparing for painting

Applying the spray paint

So far not so bad result …..

After!

Looks like new 😉
