Fender Repair Kit !!! - The Hull Truth

Is there such thing, and if not how can I repair my Fender? It's got a flat.

I know we would like them to last forever, but maybe it's time for a new one?

How would I attempt to fix one? Well I'd propably start by trying a dab of epoxy over the cleaned hole and use a blunt pin to get some of the epoxy into the hole itself.

is it just a hole in it? I put a hole in a month old 3' long polyform,!@%$#^%$. After all the cussing and swearing i had a thought,i took a tire repair kit and plugged it,those sticky lil things saved the day for me and not to mention a hundred bucks or so.

I would think that any vinyl repair kit would do the trick.

most of the brand names have lifetime warranties-check the name and warranty info to determine if yours does. most of the off brands are made by the brand name manufacturers anyway.

I found one in the marsh in front of my house that was flat one day. i looked it up and it was a Boat Us brand made by polyform or something like that. I took it back to Boat US and they exchanged it for a new one-no questions asked

That's how I got all of my weird little fenders. Boats US, Taylor, whatever, find them and take them to any retailer and exchange for a new one, no questions.

Right on! Taylor has a lifetime replacement warranty. Replaced mine without a question at West Marine. Fact is, they suggested it when I was going to buy a replacement and told them my old one had gone flat.

How about a small bead of 3M 5200 fast set.
