Im wondering what kind of schedule should i use for laying up repairs in two areas that i ground out heavily, they were cracks approx. 1 foot long which had an area approx 6 inches of delamination around them. I have completely ground out all delamination and i was going to use 17 oz biaxial cloth with no mat and just build up like that sort of a terrain map style build up then i was going to glass over everything with 24 oz roving.
Im pretty much a noob to layup schedules but i do fiberglass repairs at work all the time so i do have some experience, just not in heavy structural areas like a hull.
Im thinking 17 oz biaxial is maybe to heavy for building up in this area? I would like to match the number of layers i ground out. i ground out maybe 6 layers of cloth/matt before hitting solid glass. Im trying to figure out what weight glass the factory would have used in this area. Also is 18 oz a better idea for glassing over everything or should i go all out and use 24 oz?
The boat is a 24 foot excalibur cigarette style boat.
