How to Fix an Epoxy Surfboard Ding

I dinged up my epoxy surfboard, here is how I fixed and repaired the ding. You don't need to use the sander I used, hand sanding to fix a ding is totally fine. The most important thing is to get the board sealed up and water tight. Also do not use polyester resin to fix an EPS (expanded polystyrene - Styrofoam) epoxy surfboard, it will melt the foam, use epoxy only!
