This invention relates to the repair and removal of erosion or impact damage with a liquid repair material using a flexible applicator capable of conforming to the surface of the leading edge of the airfoil while being drawn lengthwise along the airfoil surface of a helicopter or wind turbine rotor blade thereby restoring the aerodynamic contour with or without the addition of an optional topcoat layer.
