Does anyone have first-hand experience refurbishing their engine shroud that they can share? Best practices? Lessons learned?
I bought the best (err only) original engine shroud that I could find that I think is correct for our engine. Thanks for the guidance on that. It might work as is, but it could sure use some help. Faded. Cracks. Etc. I've done some searching, but the best resources I've found so far are boat repair videos.    |
