Reply to: Delamination repair with resin caulk tube?

[quote=ericweller]Yes, I repaired some delamination on my H-16 using the empty caulk tube sold by West. It worked perfectly because the delamination area was larger than a syringe could fill. It gets kind of messy when filling the tube with your mixed epoxy so make sure you put a finger over the tip when filling otherwise the epoxy begins to leak out. Once the tube is filled, capped and loaded into the caulk gun, it worked great. I drilled small holes around the delamination and then one larger central hole that the caulk tube went into. The other thing I liked about the caulk tubes that the tips are tapered so that you can really seal the caulk tube into the hull. This allows you to really pressure fill the void. The only issue I had was when the repair was completed on my deck, all of the textured raised area on my deck was filled in from the epoxy leaking out of the holes.[/quote]
