I have several places in the coachroof of my cat that are delaminated.
Two are soft (i.e., wet), one is crunchy (i.e. dry). It's composed of
balsa between layers of fiberglass. I have very little fiberglass
experience, but would still like to repair these myself and was
wondering:

1) where I can get some instruction (lower Chesapeake Bay in Virginia).
2) is it reasonable to ask a fiberglass repair person (I'll pay) to
repair one while I watch to learn. Then I'll do the other repairs. If so,
how do I find this person?
3) can you offer some helpful advice.

Thanks in advance for your replies.
