Default Re: Painting

Thank you Fellow-ship

Boy am I going to pick you brain [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

I have a few quotes alittle higher than that (3 -3,500) just for the hull and thats flat(unlike the inside)!!!!I have also heard of some guys painting the hull for around 2,000 (that more like it). I hear you about the dangers involved although I have not heard of anyone dying from it. I love the boat but not that much. I've seen and watched a 35 ft boat rolled and tipped (what a huge job!!!) it came out pretty good but was not smooth as glass. My other problem is that the boat is in the open and not under cover. Painting would need to be done on select days and in a time frame that it would dry enough so that as evening set and it got damp the paint would not suffer from the moisture in the air (on the east coast as I'm sure your aware to get dry air its out of the west and usually windy, otherwise its off the ocean and wet [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Could you send me the address or the info on how to get that tape. I have talked with alwgrip also, nice guys, but only got the booklet on "how to"/painting. If you have any pics of the work you've done I would love to see it (Im sure others would also)

Thanks again

Scott
