Additional Articles


Let’s face it, part of why you repair a surfboard is to maintain it’s looks. We like to think that a repair done well is the end of a small tragedy, but sadly enough it’s really just the beginning of another. Have you ever looked at a surfboard and instantly seen every spot that’s ever been repaired? It doesn’t matter how well the job was done when the resin does a chameleons trick becoming yellow as a Post It note screaming “Ding Ding, Ding” , highlighting every spot you took the time and effort to carefully remove the damaged material and perform the plastic surgery you thought at the time went so well. What people aren’t aware of is that most repair kits on the market don’t include U.V stabilizers in their resin. These companies are never going to say it, but then again why would they.

You buy the kit, do the work and this is what you get….

• Unprofessional appearance • Lower Resale Value • Weakened repair over time

While the reason for this is probably tied to cost or company profit, adding a stabilizer is expensive and they have gotten away with it - it’s just the way things have been …until now. Imagine a resin as clear as water and a year later it’s still that way. That’s what PhixDoctor brings to your ding! Finally an answer to the yellow spots that have plagued the elusive perfect repair. Look a little closer and you’ll see this is just one of the innovations PhixDoctor.net has to offer. You also get a unique flexible package designed to hold enough resin to complete about 5 average dings. Any surfer that has spent money on a full sized repair kit or one of those metal tubes can tell you that most of the resin gets hard before they can use it so PhixDoctor.net has brought together the best resin in a flex package so unique it received a U.S. Patent! . it’s not something your going to notice for several weeks to a month or more after the repair is made, depending on how much sun the repair is exposed to. We would like to think that a repair done well is the end of a small tragedy, but sadly enough it’s really not. Sure the ding is safe now from further water damage and you may have forgotten it and returned back to what its’s all about.
