Any of you have any experience with doing it on your own?


I've been thinking about purchasing one of those controlled heat guns
and doing my own boat *(soon to be boats).


I wonder if it would be worth it - over time that is.


NOTE TO JAMESGANG - please feel free to ignore this post as it's
boating related. *I'll post something unrelated to boats later in the
day so you can get off ranting about off-topic threads.


I have noticed that shrink wrapping just seals IN all the dirt, AND
moisture. Not worth a ****.


Naw. I wash the boat out before it is wrapped, and there's a substantial
air vent. No problems.- Hide quoted text -

I did notice that when the local marina gets new boats in, they ARE
covered in shrink wrap, though.
