These holes will have the screws set in them.
The top plank is to be painted Sapphire blue and have a rub rail on the top and bottom of that plank. I taped off the lower edge to prevent the blue paint from going below the rub rail and onto the nice white I so carefully laid down.
The blue being the same as the white is thin and goes on in the same way, in thin coats. I sanded and prepped this plank like the rest of the boat was done
3 coats should cover the white pretty well I think.
Time: 2 1/2 hr
Are you going to 'wax' the hull? Just wondering, cause I remember my father getting me to wax the hull of the MacGregor one summer lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure yet. If there's time I will. and i mean IF.
ReplyDeleteLooking great, Perry! I'm watching and watching because Sapphire Blue is the color I have floating around in my head to paint my Pathfinder someday ... at least as a trim. The Virginia heat may make such a dark color a bad idea if I use too much of it.
ReplyDeleteWhat color are you doing the interior?
That gloss is amazing.
Lastly, I know teflon is super-slick. Is it hard and abrasion-resistant as well?
Seth
Thanks Seth. Interior will be white as well. But topcoat is "Interdeck" which is a flat white with a grit in it. Yeah that brightsides paint is like a car finish. I just rolled it on.
ReplyDeleteThe teflon is to be exact Poly, or plastic. smooth, somewhat flexible, but slides on anything! yes abrasion resistant.
