[QUOTE="kofkorn, post: 477720, member: 7076"] I've also masked the hull for the areas that I want to contain the Gluvit. Mainly because I know I'm not great at being neat when it comes to painting. [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20200913_105805.jpg"]107210._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="MVIMG_20200913_105830.jpg"]107208._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20200913_105741.jpg"]107211._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20200913_105834.jpg"]107212._xfImport[/ATTACH] I've already coated with the Gluvit. It went well, and I applied it in two coats. It's an epoxy, so I used half the can for each coat and measured according to the 5-1 volume requirements on the directions. The two layers of coating applied very thick. I'm actually going to have to use a knife to cut along the edge of the masking tape before I paint and prime, or it is likely I won't be able to tell where the edge of the tape actually is.

I bought three and ended up using two to finish the hull prep. [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20200917_150626.jpg"]107214._xfImport[/ATTACH] Next up will be to sand and prep the Gluvit for prime and paint, then to start prepping the sides for paint. There are some scratch marks that will need to have some sanding and filling too. [/QUOTE]
