Really, no flies or mosquitos or whatever in the paint? no dust?

Nice resto!!! don't give up the hard work, just a little problem to solve is quite simple from where you started !!!
Thank you for the compliments. We were very careful to make sure no debris got in the paint during spraying. First we wetted the crushed concrete down, then we rolled out a few rolls of old outdoor carpeting, and we had a ton of circulation going with three large fans. The paint turned out great, perfect, no, but after the clear and wet sand and polish the little blems went away. I am very pleased with the end results.

How long did the boat sit before you purchased Her ?

Okay fellas. Did the Texas outlaw challenge this weekend and took a little time away from the run to run her out in the gulf. The boat and the wife handled it like a champ. No whining from either. Enjoy...

Great boat looked at the pics. What paint and primer system did you use? So many paints out there. Your paint looks great.
