The Trinnie and Susannah treatment has started !
Starting to look better already,how long before you are back in the water
Are they spraying or painting with brush.?
My old tub is coming out on Wednesday afternoon just as soon as the crane driver dumps a few of them there raggie wimp boats back in the water after being out on the wharf all winter !
Not looking forward to grovelling under the boat with the jet wash or humping off the outdrives to do the bi-annual rubber swap which is now at least 6 months behind .

I am told that the best paint jobs are all about preparation - degreasing, sanding back, getting rid of the flaky bits (good job NR isnt about
) etc etc.The above is the polite reply to your post............

Yeah, I could see how there could be flaky bits...
Are you going to have any castles painted on the sides?

Christ, that's going to take a bit of rubbing down!
Last time I saw that much rust, it was on a MkII Cortina... etc etc...
(Hope you're back afloat soon

Blow that, go the whole hog, bandstand and twin 20mm cannon, you will never have rafting problems again. Probably get a .50cal on the back with a bit more work.

Interesting concept - do you think I could earn a bob or two by carrying out enforcement duties for the EA ?
