Mitch has a technique for masking that works very well for him. To tell the truth i was skeptical of the method myself until i saw a few of his jobs first hand. After chatting with him about it i understand exactly why he does it that way now. Regardless of the assumptions here, Mitch is respected and at a very high level in this profession for a reason.

I have a regular customer that has a Mitch T paint job on his Awesome cat. The quality is extremely high and its a benchmark that i use for my own work.

No assumptions, but there are alot of people who followed this thread from the beginning and then it was dead in the water. I look forward to progress threads like this and like many others I was disappointed not to see the final result.

I agree on seeing the final product. I would not think for one minute that Mitch would even take a chance of cutting corners to save time or money when it is his name on the line. I have seen the highest priced sunsations and the lowest price sunsations and the quality is always the same top notch. Now let's see the final pictures.

you dont want to paint behind a rubrail,you want to stay about 1/8 away from it,
the rub rail expands when it rubs the pier and if you have paint behind it it will rub off.
dont question Mitch,he really does know what his doing!

I never thought of that one. That is a good hint, not that I will be painting any boats soon.

All i am going to say is there is a very good reason Mitch is one of the top boat painters in the country

Trust me know one works harder at thier craft than Mitch

He is not the only boat painter out there but he is on the top of the heap with a few others for good reason
