Project Log: Friday, November 1, 2013
After final preparations, I spray-applied three coats of
Alexseal high-build epoxy primer on the deck areas I'd
prepared thus far: the pilothouse, coachroof,
cockpit coamings, and portions of the bulwarks. I
was pleased to finally move forward on the painting
project, the ultimate completion of which would be a
major landmark in the project.
My planned approach to the job, particularly the access
to the areas in question, worked well in practice, and I
was able to successfully reach all areas without getting
into the wet paint myself. Though this approach
would necessarily draw out the overall length of time
the paintwork was in progress, the areas to be worked on
at any given time were manageable in size, making the
job less daunting. For me, doing always ended up
being far easier than thinking. |
