Re: 18' Starcraft Starchief OB Rebuild
well with the new spray gun, if I have it set correctly I don't get much overspray.
I miss that top I had on the boat last year, it shielded me from the neighbor...
but it's dead thx to the snow (rip).
I also spoke to someone that knows paint the other day while getting more supplies, she confirmed that the hardner should of lasted the entire gallon, so the weird texture was related to the paint curing way to fast :lol:
So I must of wrote down the wrong mixture, but the kid helping me was new...
I also got some alumn cleaner, I tested it out a little sealing some key areas before I start priming, and it does a great job, it's a little acidic and but it cleans the metal to a bright white.
I also spoke to them about my top paint options, I want UV protection + being able to handle fuel and other chems in the splashwell, and she pointed out a 3 part paint, the extra 2 parts come in a gallon size only, and they cost a little more than the paint it self, so I'll end up with a full gallon of the stuff.
She said it's super tough and should handle walking on it as well, I do need to paint my front door once done with the boat, so I'll find uses for the left over white paint :lol:
