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

Sanding first time

Next day, sanding again

So far not so bad result .....
