PLASTIC Hull Banana Fix?

Post by Cliffy B »

As the title says, how do you fix a PLASTIC hull that's decided to emulate a banana? Will the same, "heat and press" method for resin hulls work or is there another way?

The first one is probably the most applicable, but it sounds like the technique is similar regardless of the part.
