How to seal glass fibers into fiberglass pole?
I bought a limb trimmer with a fiberglass pole.
It's weathered and there are tiny fiberglass spikes sticking out all over. I tried to scrape them off, to no avail. Think I need to paint it or something. What should I use? |

Did you try duct tape? |

I lightly sanded it and coated it with Polyurethane . Solved the problem and kept using the ladder. WW |
