I'm having trouble finding information about this that really explains the process.
I have a Bobamaker jetpack fully painted and weathered. How do I safely drill holes so I can attach the metal hooks and clips into the jetpack?
I don't really have any special tools beyond a power drill and some basic drill bits.
Based on what I see... I need a countersink drill bit, a normal drill bit that I use in reverse to start, and masking tape? There is no way to prevent gelcoat cracking? However, the thing I'm most concerned about is that I completely crack the fiberglass and the jetpack falls apart or loses integrity and the clip/hook becomes useless.
Can anyone shed some light as to what they did or maybe mistakes they have made with other fiberglass parts? I see on youtube there are some "tutorials", but they don't instill confidence in my understanding and the fiberglass they're drilling is usually on a boat. Boat fiberglass seems way thicker than the jetpack fiberglass I need to drill into too.
