detroit green by POR-15




Finishing the paint job for the pair of DETROITS, just did the back side and touched up the front... Looks pretty good and I think I just have to do a little touch up when the paint arrives... I like this paint very much but they only sell it in a pint which is total BS. I have used 5 pints total and still have to finish the starter and the air boxes... I have more paint coming because I am out... floorboards have been painted for the aft deck area 3 coats for the back side (white) and one coat for the topside with the non skid and nothing for the stripe... as of now. Tomorrow SEAMARK is going to be inspected by the county and everything has to be off the dock.

barnacle love

Took Paul and I 3 hours of finishing up what we started yesterday... there was so much growth and this time not just filth but barnacle galore everywhere where the bottom paint has already wore off. Can not believe that it only lasted a year. This time around it'll be SEALIFE all around. Got the paint already and really looking forward to it. I know now where it really have to go on thick and many coats will be needed plus the blocks have to get moved because the paint comes right off where the boat is blocked off or rather supported when laying up.
