[QUOTE="smackdaddy53, post: 355169, member: 10154"] I am not accusing you of anything BUT I can see in your photos as you are masking it off that there is still original paint on the hull. That paint holds impurities. Look at how my hull looks, not a single speck of paint on that hull, just bare aluminum. As far as the way I do things, if someone tells me to use a pound of screws to build a deck in my back yard I buy three and use all I can and put the rest away for back up. I have GatorGlide left over for touch up when I need it. I am not knocking you bud, just calling it like I see it. With aluminum preparation is absolutely imparative to the quality of the finish. My hull has over 5 coats on it. My Tuffcoat on the deck was quoted at 2 gallons and I bought 4 gallons and have about 1/3 of a gallon left over. I would rather have too much than not enough! Get another 1/2 gallon and finish it, that is what I would do. I hope you are not mad at me, I am supporting a great product. [/QUOTE]
