Fiberglass repair

That's why I have an aluminum boat.  😁

When your happy with service tell everybody, when your not tell the manager.

Conventional  marketing history indicates an unhappy customer tells at least 5 people about how bad the company, service, or product is. A happy customer will tell 1 to 2 people how great it is.  So.....smart companies work hard to never have an unhappy customer.  

Some thoughts for a would be DIY home fiberglass worker.

For years I have done small fiberglass repairs on things like motorcycle fairing, our boat, and even building a MH skylight with it.  It is easy, inexpensive, and for the most part, forgiving to work with.

Then we got a MH that had a fiberglass roof with a several surface cracks that didn't leak, but according to the fiberglass expert I had look at it, compromised the integrity of the roof.  It was a much larger fiberglass project than I had ever undertaken, and after buying some material I started into the project at home.  We live in rural community, but the houses are fairly close together and we have a cat, neither of which I had thought much about before starting.  After laying a considerable amount of glass I needed to do some sanding which spread fiberglass dust all over the ground and even some into the neighbors yard.  I was protected, but this stuff is hazardous to breathe, ingest, or even have on your skin. After noticing what was happening, I removed as much of the dust as I could from areas the cat would walk in, and from the neighbors yard.  Then I took the MH to a fiberglass shop where the dust wouldn't be a problem and had them finish what I had started.

I hope this may someday help someone to avoid the mistake I made by not thinking the whole thing through.
