Is there someway to refinish a wakeboard that has scratches on the bottom of it? I have some old wakeboards that I am trying to restore back to what they use to be.

nbing99, How bad is the damage that you're trying to repair? Just some small surfase scratches or is the base worn down a bit?

you could try sun cure found at most surf shops. I use super glue for patches but never tried to make it look pretty.

There are mostly cosmetic scratches on the bottom of the board from rails and the edges are a little torn up.

as far as the edges are concerned my friend blew out an edge and we where able to re-finish it with fiberglass resin and then a sander to smooth it back out, now its stronger there than before

x2 on the fiberglass resin, I cut the rear fins off my shane to use as a rail board, filled the openings with fiberglass resin, sanded smooth. Seemed to work well
