Humvee Fiberglass Hood Repair

Humvee Fiberglass Hood Repair

This video is me repairing my Humvee hood. Luckily my hood just had minor damage and was easy to repair. A decent amount of #fiberglass repair went into it, but thank god for time lapse. LOL.

I think it’s important to live life my friends, and learn to build your dreams yourself. The unrest in the world and things like the conflict in ukraine and russia drive home the importance of how fleeting peace is. Get a hobby, do things yourself, its very satisfying. #hummer #humvee #hmmwv #diy #4×4

Looking better every video! Like the casual attire while working on the ride, I thought I was the only one running around my property in casual attire. Now as for fiberglassing, I had a baptism by fire back in the early 80’s. Had acquired an old Harley Davidson golf cart and the bonnet was a total mess. It took a friend and I a month just to restore the fiberglass. After the fact I learned that if I had drilled the end of the stress crack with a drill bit about twice as large as the crack, it would prevent the crack from spreading further. This technique is also used on aluminum aircraft skins. On to paint. Without prior knowledge and just casual advice from friends, my friend and I managed to apply a fantastic finish of candy apple blue to the bonnet. No runs, no crazing, an almost perfect finish! Would I do a candy color again? NOT! When I get to working on my ride it will be all Matt finish. We just finished painting the exterior of a military comms shelter, did it in the beige color of units used in Desert Storm. Net step reapplying decals for all of the warning signage as well as its serial number.

Nice job pal….looking good. Can't wait to see how you do patterns for 3 color camo paint. That will be in the near future for my 1151..
