Hello, I am looking for ideas/opinions on a project I am undertaking. I have many houses that have an asbesto based siding, its very thing, almost ceramic like. In some places the siding has been damaged by physical force, while the 99% of the siding is still intact. Residing each and every house would be very costly, and I would prefer avoiding this until necessary.
Basically my idea is to create moulds of the different sizes and textures that the siding panels come in, and create a polyester resin/fiberglass mixture that I could wet cast, paint, and use in place as a semi-permenent patch.
I have moulds for two of the many types of panels, and a literally unlimited budget.
Any thoughts?

Put aluminum or vinyl siding over it and ignore it for the next 30 years like every other slum lord in existence

I would just use Bondo and texturizing tools to make spot repairs and paint over the entire surface with a good urethane paint.

Areas are a little bigger than a bondo job. When a whole panel cracks I have to take it out or risk release. Trying to make replacements that I can put up that look the same, and then replace individual houses completely when they degrade to the point of actual action needing to be taken.
I'm thinking of a resin mixed with some fiber for strength, and maybe use some sand as a filler?

Just rip the old shit off. Touching asbestos is not an instant death sentence.

I just pay my mexicans to remove it at 5 am before the codes enforcement people are around. It's not like any of the deadbeat section 8 tenants are awake either, they're still high or hungover until about 10.
