wood blades and their plastic coating

Is there any saving a rotor blade where some of the plastic has peeled up from the end? Attached is a pic. I'd really like to repair this if possible...tight budget and all. There is no other damage to the blade other than this.

Thanks.

Repair:)

Hi you can go to any model shop and buy just the white plastic shrink wrap for your blades.
This stuff is straight forward to put on and you should have usable blades.

I ended up using 30 minute epoxy on it and it worked out really well. I did rebalance things first and had a great few flights!

Thanks for the help!
