as some one else said scrap/ruff up the area to put the glue a little you can use a nail file. the best glue i have found for gluing just about any thing is “crafter’s goop” you can buy it at most walmarts. it drys clear , drys totally in 24 hrs and is even waterproof once dry
This works the best, first drain the tank, get a small sheet metal screw and put a small o-ring on it, run the screw up in the hole, wire brush the area, then mix J-B weld and smear it good. I have had 100 percent success.
Water might get in it, or might already be in it, take it to a shop or do it yourself. Fill it with epoxy so no more moisture gets in. I don’t know about how long their warranty on boards are, but you could try waiting till the end of the season (don’t recommend, the core might get wrecked) and send it in. If it’s still under warranty, they might replace it. As long as it fits their parameters, it should be fine.http://www.burton.com/Warranty/Default.aspxCheck out the board tab.
You can coat something like that with one coat of epoxy resin (the kind sold for crafts** or with “bar top resin” sold at Home Depot/etc), or you can just use a clear polyurethane (and perhaps do a couple of coats).The resin is two-part though, takes 24-72 hrs to fully cure, and is a little more fiddly to use than a polyurethane (I use the Varathane brand of polyurethane in particular –the gloss, indoor, one). Both could be dipped or brushed/etc on though (if dipping, the polyurethane would be thicker than if just brushed on). You could also buy an acrylic spray and use that but it probably won’t be quite as clear as the liquid ones, and you’d want to do multiple light sprays.(“White glues” like ModPodge decoupage medium and other thinned white glues will dry clear and are adhesive, but they just aren’t as resistant to later scratching or cloudiness from humidity like polyurethanes are… in fact, polyurethanes are often used as a final coat over white glues and even epoxy resins sometimes to improve some of those qualities.)If you’re interested in those two materials and ways to apply them (including dipping), and more, check out these two pages at my site:http://glassattic.com/polymer/finishes.htm > Varathanehttp://glassattic.com/polymer/other_materials.htm > Epoxy Resins > Coating, Dipping(…my site is primarily about polymer clay, so the Finishes page especially deals most with using clear finishes on polymer clay, but most of the info should be the same for other materials/items)**some easily-available brands would be Envirotex Lite, Ultra Glo, and perhaps Crystal Sheen, etc…. epoxy resins come as two bottles of equal-size, A + B (which are mixed together just before use)(…btw, do NOT buy a “polyester” resin for this use… that type of resin could easily be sticky on the surface sooner or later… it comes in one large bottle and one small one)HTH,Diane B.
take it to a shop and ask them to refurbish it professionally, they will make it look brand new
Would imagine you would use a mold, then shape the product after. Skimming off material rather than applying more to get a round object. Kind of like making a bowling ball. They start with a core, then inject the other material around it inside of a mold. It has imperfections, so they then shave it round using a lathe style machine. Commercially Im sure theres different ways to go about this, Injection Molding also comes to mind. What size is the ball to begin with? Maybe get some ideas if know how big your talking about.
This stuff: http://www.capturethemagic.biz/acatalog/Diamond_Glaze.html is excellent for producing a similar effect to epoxy stickers (which are made in bulk in the far east using a hot epoxy process).Don’t know about the pins…sorry.
