Day 3; as we pick up the action, the lads seem to be wearing down a bit as MJ moans and groans over the cost of sandpaper.... ;D ;D...
 
Careful what you ask for... 2 guys w/ a 36 grit disc on a 4.5" grinder could turn the whole boat to dust in 1.5 hours. Bottom paint aint no problem if you get agressive enough.

Finally finished all the sanding and applied my first coat of TOP SECRET PAINT, that I heard about from Capt.Bent. The paint has a super gellcoat finish and shine. No brush marks as they promised. The only problem I have is the run marks. The company makes it clear to then it out and I did, but I have ALOT of run marks in the paint to say the least. Plus I was painting till 10pm last night with a spot light and alot of criiters landed and became stuck in the paint. I finally thought my sanding was done. I'll be doing a light sand job to the entire hull once again, add on a second coat and thats it !!. So hopefully she will be looking good/better by next week. Will be sure to post some pictures.
 
Went out and bought two gallons of stripper and stripped her back down. Paint wouldnt bound to the Interlux primer. I'm now thinkinking what to do now ??
Looks like bottom paint, or use a differnt primer, but would hate to spend more cash and the paint again doesnt stick. :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[
 
white Rust-Oleum, nice enamal paint will stick like glue, and easy to touch up when needed~!~

I knmow someone who sanded most of the black antifoul, and painted with the above and it lasted great!

I like cheap ;D
 
I painted a 13 whaler with the rustoleum 2 part paint and it works great. About 100 bucks for a gallon with the activator. The neat thing was after i painted the outer hull with the white, i took the remainder back to the store and they tinted it blue for the inside. good stuff.

Finished stripping the hull down. I am now back where I started at with a hull with Interlux 3000. Will do some deck work and think what to do next with the hull.
The dive season is starting, Gotta Gettter done and in the water.
 
Tuff Coat: tell me some more about it. Do you use this on the deck? Previous owner put carpet snaps on the deck and some are missing, I want to remove all and fix holes and match to surrounding color (off white). I also have a couple of other fixes where I changed out a seat.

I have a 91 V-20 with the 5.7 volvo penta DP.
