Author	Topic:   Filling Holes on Non-Skid Surface
Dawgs123	posted 06-08-2004 08:31 PM ET (US)         I have a Sport 13 that has screw holes on the deck of the non-skid surface from the previous owner. What should I use to fill the holes, and where can I find a tool or mold that will give me the non-skid surface. Also, does Spectrum Color sell anything to fill the holes before applying new gel coat?

You can fill holes with your choice of material: --resin, either polyester or epoxy --adhesive or silicon sealers You must make your old mold pattern of the non-skid. Many gel coat resin sellers also sell the material to make a mold You can fill the holes with stainless steel flat head screws set flush. For longer answers, locate some of the previous discussions on this topic.
