Here is a few pictures of the hull sanded ready for primer, and a picture of the livewell mold ready to be sanded with 600/1200 then be buffed out. livewell molded was built using 3/4 mdf glassed and then shot with 10 coats of duratec vinyl ester primer, for those of you who have never used this primer it is used for resurfacing molds really a great forgiving product, primer was shot using a G200-6 Gel Coat & Resin External Mix Cup Gun, for those of you looking for a livewell I will be pulling a few parts from this mold next week, the leaining post mold is almost complete and I should have pictures up next week, Thanks for looking
