Ripped a hole in my KL Sled this morning. Anyone know the right fix? I'm thinking some sort of waterproof epoxy that adheres to plastic, but a brand or type would be helpful to know. Thanks.

Gorilla Glue, then cover with fiberglass epoxy.

Get some fiberglass cloth and marine resin. It will be just about bullet proof after that.

Works very well. Don't mix it too hot or the plastic will buckle. Follow the directions. If you want you could put a layer across the whole bottom and make it bulletproof. Just remember a a whole layer would add quite a bit of weight.

5200 marine adhevise sealant,can find at any marine store or wal-mart. JB weld is good stuff but not great for what your doing.Read directions-it takes about 4 to 5 days to cure. Also works great for decoy repair.
