Any suggestions for the best way to patch small (1/8" max dia.) pinholes in

Polyfiber fabric?  I have a couple on the underside of my fuselage just aft

of the nose cone.

If it is painted with polly tone,,,,  Cut some small circles 1 1/2 inches in
	


diameter with pinking sheers,,,,   paint them on with polly brush,,,, iron

the patches smooth, then cover in silver then top coat.



Just thinking out loud.....  if you can get to the 1/8 inch hole from the

inside....  put the patch on the inside and you may not have to do all the

painting.  It should stabilize the fabric and stop it from running...



Different paint,,,,   then follow directions for your finish.
