If I had repaired it then it is acceptable . Anyone else done it then I would be having a close inspection of it . If it ain't as good or better ( unlikely ) than a repair I would have done myself then it is unacceptable . The repair needs to make it as stucturally strong as it was in it's past life .

BUT .. If it is covered in thick sticky gloop and you can't see the actual repair then P&A . And make double sure you get the P&A in .
