I agree with the above comments on the fiber re-enforced lining repair. It is just a matter of cutting back the damaged area, solvent cleaning to remove contaminants, apply putty to smooth the edges and then apply the resin and mat to complete the repair. After hardness is achieved, a gel coat of wax solution should be applied followed by a holiday test. Make sure to feather the wax coat on the remainder of the patch area so that the repair may be tied in to the remainder of the floor.
