Can you repair chips on the base of your board?

Question

I was hitting some rails today and theres like 3 big chips on the bottom of my board from the rail. my uncle has the same thing and he's been riding his board like that for a few years now so its not too big of a deal, but i was wondering if this was repairable... 2 of them still have the material hanging off and one came off.

Answer 1

what board u talking bout??

Answer 2

You can take it in to a shop and get it fixed for about $50.  However, it's really easy to fix the bottom of the board.  You need a few tools  a P-tex candle. and some wax remover.  The tools, wax, base cleaner and p-tex are available from a board shop or ski shop..

First-- remove the excess material from the chips with a scraper

Second-- Strip the wax off the bottom of the board, following the instructions on the remover

Third -- Melt the P-tex into the hole, either with an iron or light the candle if it has a wick.  Use it after it has stopped turning black.

Fourth-- Let it cool and scrape the excess P-tex flush and smooth  

Fifth -  Tune the edges and Re-wax the board.
