Cy,
I bought a hurricane damaged piet. The wings will be recovered with
Polyfiber but there's only a couple of small patches to be made in the fuse.
I would like to find the best way to repair them and not have to recover the
whole fuse. The razorback seems to be in good condition after 20 years and
really looks good. If you could provide a source of information, I'd
really appreciate it.
Thanks,
DickG. in Ft. Myers, FL.

If you have only small patches to do, just attach some fabric tape (or
fibreglass fabric patches with Superseam and use regular (taughtening)
butyrate dope from clear through silver through color coats. Razorback
depends on the taughtening effect of the dope to maintain its taughtness.

Cy,
Depending on the size of the patch, we routinely send out free patching due
to the amount of scraps from our fabric shop. (You just can't burn the glass
to get rid of it.) We also supply free instruction manuals that help with
the repairs. I'll be out of the shop this week rescueing the wounded and
mamed but will be able to get back with you this weekend. It will quicken
things up if you will send your snail-mail address to the e-mail address
below and a description of the size patch needed.
Sincerely,

Robert Little
