The invention relates to a method for treating a fiber-plastic composite of a rotor blade, comprising the steps of: providing the fiber-plastic composite to be treated at the rotor blade; preparing a local working area of the fiber-plastic composite; providing a fiber-matrix composite comprising a UV-curable matrix material and a fiber material; applying the fiber-matrix composite onto the local working area of the fiber-plastic composite; and curing the matrix material. The invention provides for the curing of the matrix material to take place with the help of UV radiation.
