Re: Drystar
SGT,
I totally agree with you that Barry should be given his due credit for inventing the DryStar which many have ultilized in the industry. That being said, his repair advice is not acceptable to many of us. I've provided many 5-10 minute repairs in the past but that was under ideal or in shop conditions. For someone to simply state that 99% of the repairs he provided took under 5 minutes is not a very responsible message to spread unto others, especially new techs. Current resin suppliers suggest at least 5-8 minutes curing time with a quality UV lamp. I'm personally not sure if any of these fast curing lamps even existed in the late 80's or early 90's. Sure anybody can fill a repair quickly but is that repair actually cured? As I remember Screeman stating in a earlier post, an uncured resin will eventually eat away the lami. I think it was Screenman that said that, if not somebody please correct me.
My only other question to all is does inventing something for repair make you a specialist in repair?
