Talking Single Wall Blazer Jimmy Top

I have a good double wall top but I see from reading here the single walls are lot easier to remove and handle. Every Single wall top I see has stress cracks. How hard is it to repair them ? Would you just use the fiberglass matting and resin or should it be done by a professional ?

Thanks for your help !

Hey Charles. Glad to see another semi-local guy on here! My brother is on the fire dept in Harrison and his wife is a clerk at the police dept. Now that the irrelevant info is out of the way , I'd say if it truley is a stress related crack I would have it proffesionaly repaired. But, if it's cosmetic (chips, cracks from dropping, depending on where it's cracked of course, etc...) I would try the matting/resin thing myself.
