Hi all, just to gather some info regarding core epoxy injection. Brief description of the issue. I took off the engine floor hatch for recoring. Due to my schedule i sent it off to be recored by someone with "experience". Long story short, when i got it back i was very displeased with the results to the point where i had to put in time to cut back some of the core and fiberglass because the hatch would not fit in the hole.
After my job was done i later found out that sections of the "new" foam core had separated from the fiberglass between the core and the lower side of the hatch. Some section you can see and feel soggy, as in not bonded. Now i dont want to rip out the new core and re-bond or send it back to the character that did the job as i left the place pretty pissed off. I was thinking of drilling holes 2 to 4 inches apart in the core to inject some epoxy and then weight it down to properly bond it. The question is, is this feasable and if it is what epoxy would be recomended? I would like to try this before i have to remove and recore if possible. Any feedback would be appreciated.
