Hi,

I managed to produce some small damage on my kite foil:

The damage was caused by the lines that got wrapped aroud the foil in wavey conditions. The damage appeared on the back side of the foil where the edge is very thin (1-2 mm). I am wondering how to fix this. Is seems that there is not enough space to use some extra fiber to reinforce the area. I found this epoxy repair filler. Will I be able to fill the damage using this or will the filler struggle to make a bond with the rest of the material due to the small area of contact? Do I need to use epoxy coating resin over the filler? Alternatively I found this repair resin. Would it be better to use this to fill the damage? Or is there any other approach that you would recommend?

Thank you. I will appreciate any help.
