How do I fix a puncture under the foam on top of my paddle board?
A soft top paddle board may provide some advantages over an epoxy board, but when it gets damaged it is important to take the right steps to repair your board as quickly as possible to prevent waterlogging, delamination and further damage.
Step 1: Clean the area around the puncture. Use a clean cloth or sponge to remove any dirt or debris from the area around the puncture. This will help to ensure that the patch will adhere properly.
Step 2: Sand the area around the puncture. Use a piece of fine-grit sandpaper to lightly sand the area around the puncture. This will help to create a smooth surface for the patch to adhere to.
Step 3: Apply a patch. Cut a piece of patch material to a size that is slightly larger than the puncture. Apply a thin layer of adhesive to the back of the patch and then place it over the puncture.
Step 4: Press the patch into place. Use your fingers or a roller to press the patch into place. Make sure that the patch is completely adhered to the board.
Step 5: Allow the patch to dry. Allow the patch to dry for at least 24 hours before using your board again. This will give the adhesive time to cure and ensure that the patch is secure.
