Painting a boat..
Well, we got the sanding done and painted the inside of the Brockway
yesterday. Battleship grey was in the Goof isle at Home Depot, perfect, flat, nice. It was pretty hot so I had to move quickly, but I was using a power roller with a pad attachment too. Great for doing the inside, does a much better job than the sprayers I have used in the past. Rollers with a "tip" method brush is still the best way to go for wood boats. Time today to flip her over and do the bottom, that will be much easier. Later, Scotty |

Since it is clear you don't even really know the simple basics of work skiffs, your followups will be ignored, unless you can squeak out a serious question that is not loaded or a troll... unlikely.. Scotty from SmallBoats.com 1. I saw the photos of that Brockway skiff, and thought it exhibited one of the worst paint jobs I have ever seen on a small boat. It was sloppy, with overlaps, and the grey paint on the floor was peeling off in many places. If I ever painted one of my father's customer's boats as poorly as you painted that skiff, he'd have gone through the roof. Don't you have a roll of masking tape? 2. I don't use an external spellchecker here or anywhere else. I do use the spellchecker in my head when it matters. 3. A lot of my father's trade when he was in the boat business was work skiffs, including actual skiffs from a company in Greenwich or Norwalk named "Skimmar" or something like that (long gone, I am sure), plywood skiffs the guys in the shop built in the winter, and Amesbury dories from Stur-Dee. **All* of those boats, the factory-built ones and the shopbuilt ones, exhibited more quality and certainly a better paint job than anything I have seen from you. Perhaps your problem with the paint jobs is that you don't have steady hands. That wouldn't surprise me.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yeah, but there is no evidence that your dad ever owned a shop, or that you have built any boats, you are a wordsmith, and a dishonest one at that. Anyway, Tipping is a technique developed for the new high end poly or epoxy paints, especially. It involves applying the paint with a roller for speed coverage and fill. As soon as you start to see a reaction, you follow with very light pressure and the brush at 90 degrees to the work, one pass, in one direction. This allows the paint to flow again but at a slower pace. If done correctly, it can produce a better surface than even some spray methods. Power painters, rollers, spray, etc. are used for application only. It's just a lot easier than dipping and dipping, then switching to a dry brush for tipping. HVLP works great for outside and the lighter based, poly/epoxy paints. High pressure or a couple of various size rollers do great inside near the framework. Being a work skiff, this boat has some rough edges here and there, so I use disposable rollers. The little pink ones (6" x 1") I find to work best. Runs, drips, egos.. no time here, this is a tool. Paint is a part of the tool, the tool will work just as well with a couple of drips. We are talking a hull with a total material cost of under 400 dollars. As many of you may have seen from last years vids, the kids and fish didn't mind the flaws...;) |
