Upgraded Audio/Visual System

Fiberglass repair is really not very difficult to do as long as you don't mind filling - sanding, filling - sanding, repeat  (plenty of YouTube vids and info available over at the FiberglassRV.com forum).  The biggest issue is getting the gel coat color to match.  The folks at Oliver should be able to tell you exactly what color you have and even (perhaps) send you a small amount of it.  I know that they spray it on for any of the small repairs that I've seen them do.

Good luck!

Fiberglass work by Oliver or a marine shop that does fiberglass repairs.

Thanks, John. I did patch these holes when I filled some screw holes on the body. Like Bill wrote, it is tedious with the sanding, and I only got it so good, trying to sand the fill without dulling the area around it. I used this product that was pretty good, color just a tad brighter than our old hull.

Oliver has used at least two different colors of gelcoat through the years. The current models are a much brighter white that the older ones.

We've found the white marine tex is "close enough" in inobtrusive spots.

While finishing up the Attic wiring and another install today, it was hard to find the two LARGE holes I filled months ago that were the original streetside corner TV mounts. Also today, I used almost the last of my Marine-Tex to fill all the screw holes and the large openings for the front camera and the front-corner mounted Wi-Fi booster. We'll see tomorrow after some sanding, posting results in my other thread, re rooftop repair. I just ordered another Marine-Tex kit for future use, good to have on hand!

Finishes up everything today. I installed so much HW and wiring behind the panels there is so much room now inside! Blu-ray/DVD on the shelf, lower shelf empty after deleting the Wally. Room for a small box of DVDs, my extra Dewalt charger, Chris' fan, another very important tool and of course my hat! Football on everyday this weekend. Version 2 of this upgrade is done again. 😂
