Laid Around Today
...under the boat w/the power washer...
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y90...n/DSCN0982.jpg Got a LOT of the several coats of paint off http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y90...n/DSCN0987.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y90...n/DSCN0985.jpg But as you can see there's more to go, but I figure the more I can get off this way, the less I gotta strip, sand or dynamite off...I think some of these coats of paint were applied w/some moisture still on the hull...these little pea-sized pock marks kept poppin' up and I believe them to be water droplets that were caught in a coat of paint... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y90...n/DSCN0986.jpg Here's the transom w/some of the pock-marks...ran the sander over them and they got smooth before getting to glass... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y90...n/DSCN0988.jpg Well the last two pics got mixed up...pilot error...but you get the idea... |
I was fixin to take a drink of liquor, glad I didn't have it to my mouth yet.
It'd be all over the screen if I had! :clap: Keep us posted reel!! |
Wow reel thats some nasty stuff ...... make sure you wear a mask.....

nice! Your moving right along. I did some powerwashing too. A pair of motors that were under water for over a year.
|
Reely looking good reel... great pics.. keep up the good work. Rootin for ya!! :beer:
|
At least the boat is looking better...multiple layers too:you:
|
You ever wonder why we do these things to ourselves.
|
reel, what tip nozzle are you using? i had good results with a 0 tip wobble nozzle. it has the power of 0 degrees but moves at a random pattern so it won't eat the gelcoat.
good luck |

That's the one I'm usin'...there's a LOT of paint...it's real fortunate the PW is gettin' as much as it is... |
how old was that paint? I mean, is that a fossil in the last pic?
Don't worry, it is very safe to get that old paint all over you, in your eyes and in your mouth. No need to even clean up afterwards... looking good! rkc |
