Qué cubre este vídeo

Jorman repairs a hole in the cockpit of his sailboat in Porto Santo, Madeira, by applying fiberglass and polyester resin.14:01 He first sands the area to ensure proper adhesion, using a Makita sander connected to a vacuum to maximize dust extraction and keep the sanding surface clean.5:54 He identifies a recurring failure in the sander’s factory-installed velcro pad, which loses its grip after two or three months of heavy use.7:55 To resolve this, he replaces the stock velcro with high-quality material from a fabric store, secured with contact cement.9:22 For the fiberglass repair, he uses two layers of cloth of different sizes to create a structural base, applying them over a temporary backing of adhesive tape to prevent the resin from dripping.16:47 He emphasizes the necessity of personal protective equipment, including a respirator and coveralls, to avoid inhaling fiberglass dust.13:13 The project concludes with the initial resin cure, with further layers planned for the following day.18:13
