My kitesurf board has small dents and scratches, what can I do?Updated 8 months ago

Necessary tools and materials:


- Sandpaper (various grain sizes)

- Acetone or rubbing alcohol

- UV resin (e.g. Solarez)

- Plastic spatula


Step-by-step instructions:


1. Cleaning: Clean the damaged area with acetone or rubbing alcohol and allow to dry

2. Sanding: Sand the damaged area with fine sandpaper to obtain a smooth surface

3. Apply resin: Apply UV resin generously to the damaged area and smooth with a spatula

4. Curing: Place the board in the sun or use a UV lamp to cure the resin

5. Finishing: After curing, lightly sand the repaired area to smooth it out


If the damage to the board is more extensive, we recommend having it repaired by a professional repair store. (link Repair Shop Finder)
