About the only thing more useless than Gorilla Glue are tits on a boar hog. To repair an oar you need 6 OZ glass tape and epoxy. Epoxy will degrade from UV so you will probably need to repeat repair every couple of years. Lew As I said, depends upon how badly broken it is. If it's a lengthwise break in the blade (along the grain), I would not hesitate to repair it with Gorilla Glue and dowels, properly clamped. Epoxy could also be used with dowels. There's also Resorcinol, which is also waterproof. Your opinion noted. |
