Re foaming superjet !!!!!

[johnnybigbananas]

Please could anyone run through the whole process from start to finish with me, I have cut 2x large holes in my tray and have managed to get nearly all foam out through these holes and the exhaust and through hull bilge hole.

Basicaly I need to know once you have the hull empty of foam were to start next,people say to seal the bond line?

I know to seal around the prop shaft tube,steering cable pipe,cooling pipes and pump mounting threads but am unsure about where else to seal up.

After I have sealed up everywhere I was going to seal up the 2X large holes in the base I cut out and re fill using 2 part foam through the original fill hole in the engine bay?

Is this a good idea or should I re foam with the big holes open and cut the expanded foam back with a knife and re fit the panels?

Any help would be great guys and gals

Massively covered here and on X-H20.com.

Do a search for foaming a superjet and you will find no end of information.

Nice work, how did you go about re instaling the cut panel from the deck?

For anyone reading this thread to get a better idea of what refoaming involves, I made a few videos that show the process on my '92 SJ. Took me around 40 hours. It's a long process. I outline the materials and tools I used in the video descriptions.
