Re: Best method for fixing stripped exterior hinge mounting screws
I would drill out the hole just slightly so as to expose clean fibreglass all while removing the crud in the hole. Fill hole as best you can and when dry, drill out to appropriate size the take the screw. Do not need to fill it full, just enough to be able to drill out and have a hole the size required to get the original screw back in. https://itwperformancepolymers.com/prod ... poxy-putty
