Default Strength: Folded-Up Cloth vs Loose Fibers?

Pete,
For that kind of repair, if it's just cracked, grind or sand back a
little, then lay on a wetted-out piece of cloth or mat (woven rovings or
Chopped Strand Mat) that is about 2" bigger than the crack. Sand
everywhere your patch will touch. If using cloth, aim for a total of 18
oz, and you should be fine for a surfski.
