07/06/08 - In a town where I was born, lived a man who sailed to sea. And he told us of life, in the land of "Fighting Lady Yellow submarines... Hey it must be the fumes from this stuff and heat stroke getting to me! Two down, one more coat to go!
It is finally getting there. I am sanding between coats with 320. I did roll and tip the barrier coat of primer and 1st coat of color on the bottom and decided no more of that. I am using an inexpensive gravity feed gun at about 45lbs of pressure and the paint thinned to the max of 10% by volume. The gravity feed gun is cumbersone under the boat, I think I will switch to the siphon feed for the final bottom coat
07/13/08 - Final coat of yellow went on today! Woo Hoo! No more pics till it's back on the trailer.My welder is coming over tomorrow to install the new spring carriers and cross supports on the trailer. I hope to be slipping the trailer back under next weekend.
