23 SF Rebuild

Worked on the boat this weekend buffed out the gelcoat and spent today rigging the new console.

I started spraying the hull with gelcoat I hope to finish spraying and wet sanding this weekend here are a couple of pictures.

Lookin' good!!

Looks real good. I like the idea of a final coat on the non skid to seal it. Makes sense. I have seen a few boats around here that were re done only to have the texture get worn off in a few years. I never thought about it much till now. Another thing from CSC to file into the memory bank.

Oh yeah... Very jealous of how the console looks. Nice work.

With the gel coat I used a product called patch booster then wet sanded and finished with the 3M products. There is a company out of West Palm Beach called Glue Products the owner Charlie is a great guy and has taken the time to educate me with the products he sells. I purchased all my materials from him.

I spend a tad more money there, but you are correct. Great shop around the corner.

Good knowledge and helpful folks that make sure all your products are tight and right.

They can`t help me with my lack of matching skill, but they did try. And try.
