Help... Need Hobie scrap plastic for weld!!!

[JasonG]

Might be a long shot, but I’m Looking for anyone that might be willing to part with some scrap plastic so I can do a weld repair on my Revo. It’s a 2015 in the moss/olive/greenish color. If you happen to have any, please send me a DM.

Thanks!!

Try Harbor Freight and Tool. Probably not going to find the exact same color. Practice on unwanted trash can lid prior. Good luck.

Just call one of the Hobie dealers to see if they have what your looking for
...but not Harbor Freight...LOL...
Florida...LOL

Hey! I just suggested a thrifty viable alternative -- No need to be judgemental.

As for Florida, LOL I was born, raised and spent what is still the majority of my life in California. Growing up in PVE, I had many arrogant neighbors. Thankfully I did not inherit that trait. Palos Verdes was a beautiful place to live, I do miss walking the dogs with my kids down to Abalone Cove and the Catalina/sunset views from my last RPV home. Florida has Cali beat when it comes to fisheries..... nothing to laugh about there.

So I emailed Hobie and they mailed me some plastic welding rod in the color I needed. Got it in two days... great customer service!!

Good Deal...glad you went to Hobie...instead of Harbor Freight...LOL...

Having Hobie local like it is in So. Cal. makes for some great customer service either directly or through our great line of dealers...

I've been a Regional Hobie Team member for about 7 years now and I've been pretty happy with their boats and customer service...and the top-line way that they have treated our world wide Hobie Fishing Team......
Not to mention the "Thinking-Outside-Of-The-Box" designers they have there in Oceanside. The PA 360 is really incredible...hopefully someday they'll make that "360 Drive" available in a couple of the other models...

No before pic, but I’ll post an after. I did burn it a little, but it’s ok for having never done this before.
