Title: Repairing worn pole section on SLX
Post by: KS Cleaning on February 24, 2013, 04:43:45 pm
Can anyone tell me the best spray to use to pack out the end of the section which is worn? I take it the best way to do it would be by masking the area affected? Not had to do this before so any advice would be much appreciated ;)

I've been doing the same thing for a while now. It really works well particularly on the xtreme.

The worn top sections on my slx were doing my head in, kept spinning round. I watched the video that Alex posted and just done the epoxy resin fix this weekend. Works a treat. Well worth doing.

My xtremes were on the first batch so about 20 months old now and still going strong. I cant see them needing replacing for a long time especially with the epoxy fix.  I think yours will last a while.
