Painting - Another fun job!
Painting is one of those jobs. It sucks however it is the single biggest contributor to how good the boat will look when it's done.

As far as I know there are two options. Get it sprayed professionally or DIY with a roller & brush. After much deliberation I decided to have a crack at it myself. I've done the rest of the project with little or no practical experience so why change now??!!

First came the primer and I went for the International Interprotect two pack. Basically you mix it a 3-1 and roll it on. It's viscous and goes on quite thick. After 2 coats I sanded it back and then went another two coats before sanding it back again.

When sanding I used a random orbital and I found 400 grit was too fine to start with. I ended up using 220 grit to smooth it out and went over it again with 400 to finish it.
