Looks great Patrick, excellent work.

The non-textured white will also look a slightly different shade of white (Bright white probably) then the white w/ the texture.

The light gray will look great as an accent.

The exterior hull work looks even better though. No sign of the dock rash.

Killer progress my brutha! Outstanding work!

Thanks Bear... As always, glad to have you watching along and cheering me on... You found your tinny project yet?

Smooooth...and textured...:)...NICE!

That's the plan... Hopefully, I can pull it off without it looking too bush league...

I bet you are stoked!!! Loooks great PMC...

Thanks Troop! Yes, I'm happy with it so far.. That top coat is what I have to get right...

Hey, painting a boat, that's good stuff!

Yep... Not quite to the home stretch, but she's starting to come together...

Awesome job on that deck!!!!

Thank You!

Thanks JBC; Right now, my plan is for the accent (smooth areas) to be a brighter white and then the rest of the non-skid surface will be grayish white... Can't find "light machine gray" (which is the rusto color Jas used) in may area, so I'm going to mix a little of the smoke grey with the gloss white... The goal is for most of the deck to be non-skid in a softer (grey-ish) white that won't be so hard on the eyes in the bright sun...

Re: 1988 Sea Nymph GLS - 17'

Thanks S.P. - just left a little feedback for you over on yur thread..

WoG: I'm using Rusto (easier to find in my area); the nearest Majic products are at tractor supply on the complete other side of town about 40 minutes away... However, I think I am going to have to make that trip to get some majic hardener for the topcoats... (because I can't find any other type of hardener)... I can use Majic Hardener with Rusto right?

Re: 1988 Sea Nymph GLS - 17'

Got any Advanced Auto supplies in your area that carry Auto Paint supplies? They used to carry Acme (Beep Beep)Finish1 products and their Acrylic Enamel Hardener is the same stuff. ;) If you mix 1/2 cup of Smoke Grey with a cup of White I bet you'll come close to the Machine Grey you're looking for. You might only need 1/3 cup of the Smoke Grey. Start with th 1/3 cup and add more if you need it. JMHO

The attention your giving to this boat is outstanding.. Color scheme sounds great.. The work on the hull really makes a big difference..
Looks like we have another Super Tinny on our hands..:high5:
