    Resin to fix delamination

    I have a little delamination on the front deck of my ranger, what resin do y'all recommend injecting to shore it up?

    From personal experience, resin doesn't' do that great of a job fixing that sort of an issue. I would use epoxy, and just about any 1:1 epoxy should work well.

    Wear Marine will have everything you will need. I did mine in the winter and they have epoxy that will setup at lower temperatures. They also have empty cylinders that fit a caulking gun. Mix your resin and fill them up and use the caulking gun to force the resin in the holes you will drill in the affected area. The resin will come out of the other holes you drill. Area was hard as a rock after the repair. Only negative is you will have to recarpet the boat which is a different animal. This is the recommended way to repair per Ranger.

    I need to recarpet anyway so I figured I'd take the opportunity to fix it.
