    Hi, apologies if already on a thread. I'm not familiar with the forum in recent years.


    Our caravan was scrope off a concrete pier.

    I was wondering what it would cost to have it professionally filled and sprayed.

    The dent is not right through (so not leaking... Just about), and is about 3 inches X 6 inches.


    Thanks in advance!!!

    As it's not broken through the aluminium skin it's best to leave it alone. Sanding, filling and painting could easily leave it worse. The aluminium skin is bonded to the polyurethane foam inner core and local repairs often do not work, for bad damage, a fresh sheet of aluminium is often bonded over the damaged sheet but that's a major job.

    Try simply painting it in to match the colour and leave it as an honest mark.

    Put an orange reflector on it like the one below. Either that or a decal sticker to hide the dent.
