A. Repair of the Component
WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU USE CONSUMABLE MATERIALS. OBEY THE MATERIAL MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS AND YOUR LOCAL REGULATIONS.
   (1) If the component is cracked, you must stop-drill the ends of the crack.
   (2) Remove the damage that has gone through the component with a CUTTER - THIN BLADE.
   (3) Clean the repair with Non Aqueous Cleaner-- Isopropyl Alcohol - (Material No.08BBD1) and a lint-free cotton cloth Textile-Lint free Cotton - (Material No.14SBA1) .
   (4) Repair the damage that is less than 10 mm (0.4 in.) in diameter:
NOTE: Only do this repair when the distance from the damaged area to a support or attachment point is more than 40 times the component thickness.
     (a) Apply the separating foil (1) to the front face of the component (3).
     (b) Put the component (3), front face down, on a PLATE - BASE, RUBBER (2).
     (c) Fill the damaged area with Polyurethane Adhesive-Equipment & Furnishing Two parts - (Material No.05FCE1) (4).
     (d) Let the adhesive cure for 1 hour.
     (e) Remove the separating foil (1) from the component (3).
     (f) Fill the areas that are not smooth with Polyurethane Adhesive-Equipment & Furnishing Two parts - (Material No.05FCE1) .
     (g) If necessary, make the repair area smooth with a CLOTH-EMERY (GRADE 320 - 400).
   (5) Repair to a damaged area that is 10 mm (0.4 in.) or larger in diameter:
     (a) Make an insert from the applicable PC material.
     (b) Chamfer the edges of the component (5) to 45 degrees.
     (c) Chamfer the edges of the insert (7) to 45 degrees.
     (d) Apply the separating foil (1) to the front face of the component (5).
     (e) Put the component (5), front face down, on a PLATE - BASE, RUBBER (2).
     (f) Make the repair area smooth with a CLOTH-EMERY (GRADE 320 - 400).
     (g) Clean the repair area with Non Aqueous Cleaner-- Isopropyl Alcohol - (Material No.08BBD1) and a lint-free cotton cloth Textile-Lint free Cotton - (Material No.14SBA1) .
     (h) Bond the insert (7) to the component (5) with Polyurethane Adhesive-Equipment & Furnishing Two parts - (Material No.05FCE1) .
     (i) Make a stiffener from Dry glass fabric-4H Satin 105 gsm - 120 style SRM Type 2 - (Material No.13ABC1) (6).
     (j) Apply the Polyurethane Adhesive-Equipment & Furnishing Two parts - (Material No.05FCE1) to the repair area.
     (k) Apply the Dry glass fabric-4H Satin 105 gsm - 120 style SRM Type 2 - (Material No.13ABC1) , (6) to the repair area.
NOTE: The thickness of the Dry glass fabric-4H Satin 105 gsm - 120 style SRM Type 2 - (Material No.13ABC1) (6) must equal 0.5 times the component thickness. The minimum distance from the edge of the stiffener to the insert must equal 20 times the component thickness.
NOTE: With flat components, a polycarbonate sheet equal to the component thickness is bonded to the component as an alternative to the Dry glass fabric-4H Satin 105 gsm - 120 style SRM Type 2 - (Material No.13ABC1) .
     (l) Remove the separating foil (1) from the component (5).
     (m) Fill the areas that are not flat with Polyurethane Adhesive-Equipment & Furnishing Two parts - (Material No.05FCE1) .
     (n) If necessary, make the area of the repair smooth with a CLOTH-EMERY (GRADE 320 - 400).
NOTE: Allow the bonding and adhesive compounds to harden before you use the emery cloth.
