22 ff rebuild

I mixed gelcoat and duratech 50/50 and sprayed with a Harbor Freight $20 spray gun (1.8mm tip) to spray the water runs and lid edges - came out smooth and pretty.

decided to roll gelcoat. Used duratech 50-50 and their gelcoat. 3 layers sanded between coats, base should be good for fake seadeck on top

Came out nice.

Thanks bob, I’m gathering materials  primers and am going with quantum products from advise here. I plan on soda blasting d&d bracket, has anyone used quantum’s strontium chromate primer for aluminum before? Looks like their epoxy primers can overcoat it. Not sure if Trilux 33 can go over their epoxy primers though. Maybe there is a better bottom paint for bracket  for aluminum?

Been windy with a lot of rain for us since new years  Little more work to do on gunnel but it survived

You guys have had it bad these past few weeks. So, what is propped up use to be the roof of a shop/carport?

[Fishhead]

Yeah rick , lots of flooding around area. It was a RV carport about 30 years old posts held up near side and ledger boards on far side were lagged into frees. Wind blew trees down and pulled carport down. Finished removing all trees and stumps.
