[QUOTE="thill, post: 514143, member: 4972"] Add an ounce of Acetone and a teaspoon of Japan Drier or any paint hardener to your pint cup of paint, and use a foam roller and very soft brushes to get in the corners. The paint will seem very watery, but will dry super-flat and pretty fast. NO SANDING NEEDED! Because it dries so fast, you can roll one side of the boat, go around the back and by the time you get to the front, it will be ready for the next coat, or maybe just a short wait. I absolutely hate painting, but after learning this trick, it's almost fun! And the finish will be excellent- nice and glossy. [/QUOTE]
