Hey all,

After spending too long in the sun, my twintip has started to de-laminate. I was thinking of sanding it back and re-spraying but does anyone know what kind of spray they use to clear-coat them?

What if he posts a picture of one of his kids whineing in an office chair saying that " immm booaaarrrddd" every 5 minutes.

We wont legally be able to tell him to sand em back and spray em anymore

Especially if theyre twins unravelling from the exostenstial crisis that is having a perfect replica of yourself running about achieveing everything at slightly a higher grade then you are.

How old is it? Which brand? (Shinns had an issue with delam of the top shiny layer) The top layer (shiny or matt finish) are not sprayed on, they are laminated in the moulding process.
It might not be fixable.

^^^^ this
almost all twinnies are a wonderful strong product that then has a lazy and dumb way of making them look pretty - ie: a plastic later that you can't paint, can't get laminating resins to stick to re-glass.
It is likely not fixable but there may be options - depending on where the delam is. Prob not DIY and the special products needed may mean it's not worth it too.
like most repair questions here - more info and pics
