Author	Topic:   Cracking Repair Advice Near Rear Corner Scupper
Sal A	posted 06-17-2008 05:38 AM ET (US)         I notice some interior spider cracking and chipping around the cracked interior plastic scupper trim. I know for sure I will need to take a putty knofe and get the circular scupper trim off completely and replace; my question is how do you sand down the area around it that is spider-cracking and chipping? It is non-linear and curved, as it is in a corner. Once I get the area sanded and smoothed I intend on re-gelcoating the area and then applying a new trim with some marine adhesive. Andy advice on the sanding part, or any other? I know I will have to block up the scupper first and dry the area out; the boat is in the water.
