Filling a cup in ride pad....?

[kevinpratt823]

What are people using to fill in and true up a cup in the ride pad? Finishing resin? Bondo? I need to try it on my 45" Sniper to see if I get a little extra out of her.......Thanks for any input.

Check out the end of this thread-- I used marine epoxy putty and it worked great. I had to combine a hull repair with blueprint, so needed something to bond solid to the fiberglass and patch up the holes. Might be a little expensive for a simple fill, but should be permanent.

Thanks Chief, looks like good stuff. I'll take a ride to the West Marine nearby and pick some up!
In the meantime, I am curious what others are using as well........?

I use Autobody Icing and actually just did my Pursuit a few days ago with it as well. It's a 2 part glazing putty that sands super easy.
