RidgeRacer Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I got a pretty good deal on a set of Public Enemies on eBay. They're in very good condition (bases are fine). There are a few chips on the top sheets that are annoying me though. They're not a major deal but I know they're there and it bothers me plus I don't want them to chip any more. Anyone have any recommendations / experience for fixing top sheets (epoxy brands, etc.) and method to fix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaldon Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 i usually fill the chips with super glue and it seems to work for me, but you have to make sure their isnt any moister under the glue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineskier18 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 i use epoxy and it works pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan- Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Epoxy works fine. I wouldn't really stress it though, from what i've heard about K2 topsheets, they chip super easy anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRacer Posted September 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Sorrt are you serious..this is a gaper question times 10 that you asked....what does it matter if your top sheets are chipped??? Right...next time I'll consult the manual before posting. In the mean time, it matters because I don't want the chipped off portions to get any larger.

pcc25 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Some of the older Public Enemy's had top sheets made out of PTEX, it comes in sticks you just use a lighter and light it on fire and let it drip into the void, it works pretty well, you can clean it up with a razor blade and sand paper.

Justo8484 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 JB Weld anyone? Way more bomber than p-tex... i'll vouch for jb weld. i've rebuild completely blown out sidewalls with the stuff and skied on em for the rest of the season. surfboard resin works pretty well also, since it's made to bond to fiberglass, aka the stuff that's wrapped around the core of the k2 PE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to think of it, it may be the only thing holding one pair of skis I have together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
