Don't do this to your kayak

Do not allow an ordinary electrical light bulb to rest against your kayak whilst the bulb is switched on. If you do, it'll melt a hole through your lovely kayak, and then you'll have to fix it!

However if you have melted a hole in your boats, heres how to fix it.......


STEP 1:

Smooth off your unsightly hole, removing any melted plastic.



STEP 2:

Make a template and use it to cut out a piece of plastic to fill the hole, round the edges of your 'filler'.



STEP 3:
Weld your 'filler' into your hole using more plastic and a hot air gun.


STEP 4:
Smooth off welds.

STEP 5:
Take more care with light bulbs!
