Default PW5 dive brake repair

Our club PW5 has a problem with the composite material detaching from the aluminum cap on the top of a dive brake (the part that makes the dive brake cap conform to the airfoil shape at that station). Has anybody had actual experience with this type of repair? I emailed the nearest shop and the repairman said he didn't have experience etching the aluminum to prepare the surface for bonding.
