Painting

[FELLOW-SHIP]

HA SCOTT
I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE YOU MY WEEKEND PAINTING REPORT. I HADE A PRODUCTIVE WEEKEND I WAS ABLE TO PAINT THE ENTIRE INSIDE OF THE BOAT WITH ITS FIRST COAT OF TOP SIDE PAINT, PLUS I WAS ABLE TO PAINT THE SIDES OF THE BOAT WITH PRIMER. ALL IN ALL IT COME OUT PRETTY GOOD. I EVEN GOT SOME COMPLEMENTS ABOUT THE JOB WHICH I QUICKLY GAVE THE CREDIT TO THE PAINT AND NOT THE PAINTER.
I USED THE NAP COVERS ON THE PRIMER WHICH I LIKE THE BEST FOR THE PRIMER COAT. IT GOES ON SMOOTH AND THICK ENOUGH THAT YOU HARDLY HAVE TO DO ANYTHING ELSE WITH IT. THE PRIMER IS THE KEY TO THIS THING USING ENOUGH AND GETTING IN ON RIGHT. AS FOR THE TOP COAT FOAM IS THE WAY TO GO AND IF YOU WAIT THE 30 TO 45 MINUTES AS THEY RECOMMEND THE PAINT IS JUST THICK ENOUGH THAT IT GOES ON NICE AND SMOOTH WITH NO RUNS. IT ALSO CAME OUT VERY WELL I FEEL LIKE I WILL BE ABLE TO PULL THIS THING OFF WITH THE ROLLER AND TIP METHOD. I AM PAINTING OUTSIDE AND THAT IS MY BIGGEST CONCERN. I AM THINKING ON MOVING THE BOAT TO PAINT THE FINAL COAT BOTH INSIDE AND OUT TO A AREA THAT I CAN CONTROL THE WIND AND DUST AND RAIN BETTER. NEXT WEEKEND I GET TO START SANDING AGAIN (OH BOY) NEED TO SAND THE PRIMER WITH 220 AND THE TOP COAT WITH 320 THEN I CAN PUT THE NON SKIT DOWN AND THE REST OF THE STUFF. I BOUGHT A SECOND GAL OF PRIMER TO FINISH OFF THE REST OF THE BOAT WITH I SHOULD HAVE SOME LEFT OVER OF THAT. WE WILL SEE.
