Post subject: | question for John A. Yaeck |
John A. Yaeck, When you talk about prepping the boat what is included? Sanding, what grit? primer? etc. If primer needs to be used what kind and what color? I have a yellow h16 that I might change to white, or does the krylon come in yellow? Did you remove the hulls? I thought about painting it on the trailer and just move it forward or back to complete the bottom. Trailer and other part of the boat would be masked off. Of course I ned to paint the trailer also. Do you spray several light coats? If so estimate how many. How much paint does it take?, one case? two cases? etc.. Do you buff it afterward or just wax it? Which would be better for touch up later? white or yellow? The reason I want to paint it is I had some delamination problems and I drilled and filled a lot! Possibly 100 + holes on the sides of the hulls. I also thought another solution was to have someone make some large decals for it to cover the drill holes, but I didn't know if they would peel off. The boat is not used for racing, just family use, and I never leave it in the water and usually launch from a ramp or slide across carpet strips. Thanks a lot, John G. |
