OVERVIEW

The Polytec deck and hull are made of a single

thick skin of polypropylene reinforced with

fiberglass.

Aesthetic Damage - Scratches

An external scratch is the result of the hull or

deck surfaces rubbing against a rough or sharp

object.

This type of damage does not cause any

operational problems. This type of damage is

exclusively aesthetic.

In most cases, this damage can be removed or

diminished by buffing over the scratch using the

Polytec Resurfacing Technique. Refer to REPAIR

PROCEDURES at the end of this document.

The results may vary, depending on the affected

area.

Structural Damage

IMPORTANT

BRP strongly recommends providing a copy

of this document to your local body shop

before it performs any repairs on a

Polytec hull or deck.

Structural damage is usually the result of

impact. The component is cracked or pierced.

The size and location of the damage are

deciding factors when evaluating if the

component should be repaired. For example,

repairing a large area of complex damage under

the engine might require as much labor as a

hull replacement. An estimate of the labor cost

should be used to guide the decision.

The decision to repair or replace should be

based on the customer’s expectations regarding

cost, aesthetics, resale value, and how quickly

the job must be completed.

Cracks

This is the most common type of damage after

scratches.

A crack is a fracture which penetrates the

material of a component. The opening is

visible from the inside and the outside of the

component.

Holes

The second type of structural damage is a hole,

usually the result of an impact with an external

object. A piece of the damaged component may

be missing.

A hole can be repaired using the original piece

if it is not bent or damaged. A new piece of

Polytec material, cut to size, can also be used.

NOTICE

Failure to follow the recommendations presented

in this bulletin may result in a poor quality repair

or damage to the Polytec surface.

Location of Damage

Certain areas of the hull are critically sensitive to dimensional precision and should not be repaired by

plastic welding.

It is not recommended to repair structural damage at the bow and transom tow hooks as well as in the

following areas:

Ribbing

Pump support and ride plate mating surfaces

Intake grate mating surface

Keel line

CARE AND PRODUCTS

SPECIAL CARE OF POLYTEC SURFACES

Fuel Spillage

NOTICE

Wipe up spilled fuel immediately. Failure to

clean fuel spillage may weaken the surface and

cause damage.

Washing

Wash the vehicle with a solution of mild soap or

detergent and lukewarm water.

Use a clean, soft cloth, applying only light

pressure.

Rinse with clean water and dry with a damp

cloth or chamois.

Aggressive Liquids and

Solvents

If a cleaning liquid or organic solvent is used, it

should be removed as soon as possible to avoid

a chemical attack on the surface.

The time required for a chemical attack to occur

can be surprisingly short.

Damage can be minimized and/or eliminated if

no aggressive liquids or solvents are used.

Heat Gun

NOTICE

Do not use a heat gun to perform the following:

– Decal removal

– Carpet replacement

– Pump support removal

– Ride plate removal

If heat is applied to the same area for too long,

the high temperature can damage the surface.

Flame Treatment

Flame treatment:

– Is a quick movement over an area or

component with a blow torch.

– Should never be too intense. The part should

never melt to the point that it looks polished.

– Will burn any excess plastic around a

scratch.

Storage Shrink Wrap

When shrink wrapping a vehicle, several

precautions must be followed to avoid damage

to the finish.

1. Wash the vehicle with a mixture of water and

light detergent.

NOTICE

Do not use a no-rinse, wash-and-shine product

on any acrylic components. This type of product

may contain agents not compatible with the

surface finish, which could lead to acrylic

crazing during storage.

2. Dry the vehicle thoroughly.

3. Install the shrink wrap.

NOTICE

Avoid touching the vehicle surface with the

torch flame during the shrinking process or

heating a particular area for an extended period

of time.

4. Install vents to allow proper ventilation under

the shrink wrap.
