I have not used this technique but have considered it. If the wood underneath is soft & dry you can take a circular saw and set the cut depth to just cut through the fiberglass. Make checkerboard pattern cuts over the soft spot and then use epoxy resin with the longest cure time available (so it will soak in). Build a ridge around the area to be repaired with duct tape to prevent the resin from running all over and put the resin on the deck (make sure the deck is level). The resin will be absorbed into the soft wood and strengthen it. Peel the tape up and use an orbital sander to sand back down to the deck, the cracks will be filled with the resin and wood underneath will be stronger. You can use a heat lamp or sunlight to get the deck hot prior to putting the resin on to help encourage the resin to spread deep into the wood.

I have not heard of anyone doing this but it seems like it would work pretty well to me…considered using it on one spot on my deck.

Anyone have opinions on whether this would be a good temporary fix technique?
