Repair Boat Trim

The video demonstrates repairing a pedal boat with large holes and gaps using Flex Glue, restoring it to a fully functional, waterproof condition.

The Project: Fix a pedal boat that has multiple large holes and gaps, ensuring bolts are held securely in place on both sides once the glue dries.

Application Process:

  1. Prepare the applicator - Cut a large hole in the Flex Glue applicator tip to accommodate the size of the holes and gaps that need filling. For projects requiring more precision, a smaller opening would be appropriate
  2. Apply Flex Glue - Fill all holes and gaps, making sure to cover sufficient surface area on both sides of the bolts to hold everything in place
  3. Clamp and cure - Use clamps to hold everything in position and wait a full 24 hours for the glue to reach its full strength
  4. Test - Remove clamps and launch the boat into the water

Results: The pedal boat stayed nice and dry, not taking on any water. The repair was completely successful, allowing the boat to be used and enjoyed on the water.

Key Takeaway: Adjust the applicator tip opening size based on your project needs - larger openings for big gaps and filling projects, smaller openings for precision work.
