Pretty work!! I like the look. I swore not to have any brightwork on my boat but I may have to rethink that.

Re: new dash
 

Nice Work! How did you fasten it to the dash/instrument panel. What type wood and clear coat did you use?

Re: new dash
 

Don't do it...you will hate yourself.

You know what the Florida sun will do.

PS. I love bright work...as long as I don't have to maintain it :cool:

Re: new dash
 

I have done my home work on this and used this product before, it works great and lasts a long long time!!
this is not varnish

Re: new dash
 

Where are you located?

Re: new dash
 

tampa.....

you should check out the web site..... its not just BS

Re: new dash
 

I have. Wood is beautiful. However over the years, I like it less on the outside and more on the inside.

No matter what you do...on a boat it is a labor of love.

That being said, I might put 2 little teak accent pieces on the 21 :D

PS upgrade your bio, then Tampa will show up on every post.

Re: new dash
 

YA what he said - I love the look of wood - where in Tampa and where do you usually put in ???

or I guess where will you when you get a steering wheel

Re: new dash
 

Bristol Finish is nice stuff, yet I find that AwlBright is easier to work with and doesn't have the tints Bristol has, but they both will last 16 mtns or more in the Fla sun, longer if you keep it under cover some. The only thing is, and this is important, you must build up with tradtional spar varnish first, or they will peel. Dash looks great, got enough varnish on my trawler, no varinsh on the SeaCraft, just the fore and aft staffs!
