ABSTRACT:
Provided is a method for repairing an aperture in a panel in which,a) a plug is inserted in a such aperture to fill same and project above the surface of the panel, b) the plug is adhered in the aperture and c) the plug is flush cut with such surface to repair the panel. Also provided is a tool for flush cutting such projection wherein a blade is mounted across a frame, which blade is mounted at about 90 degrees to the plane of such frame so as to be parallel with the surface of the panel when the frame is mounted upright thereon, to provide clearance for the hand that guides the frame while flush cutting the projection from the panel. Desirably the ends of the saw blade are recessed between smooth feet of the frame so that the blade is elevated slightly above the panel surface, to reduce or avoid scratching thereof during the flush cutting step.
