    They are the same as any other trowel you hold it at 30 or 45 deg you will be picking up material hold it at 10 to 15 deg you will be loosing material you will get a custom or your new toys have fun . I hope it helped . But you should know this any way . Once again have fun love your videos keep pumping them. Hi from Australia

    I too was impressed with large boards you used ,I hope I don't need them ever. Closed captioning was a big help, the terms is all new too me ,but I will watch more and probably have to re watch a few since I found cc button ,I don't know if you will send me a list though on covering my floor in Pro-line ,just wanted it to come out fairly well just to roll out floor and maybe spray top edges and console probably leave floor in a semi-ruff so not to slip, maybe a hint to point me in right direction would be fantastic also. thanks and enjoyed it ,Jim .

    Q: How is faring compound different from plastic automotive filler? As someone who has used large floats and trowels to finish concrete, my best advice when using that long trowel would be to work from the center of the radius outward. That way, the excess material naturally works it's way onto the area that you are going to trowel next. I say the "center of the radius" because your arm will inevitably follow an arc around your body (its pivot point) and centrifugal force will push the material away from center, allowing you to use that material on the next (further away) pass. In the case of filling relatively flat surfaces, longer is better. Lookin' good though! Wish I had the funds to support your endeavor and hope I never have to use anything I have learned from you on my own boat! lol

    Ever try knocking off the sharp corners on those types of trowels? You'll see a lot of plasterers do that when they buy new ones. They take a grinder or sander and lightly round off the corners and that greatly helps reduce that streaking you get at each side of the trowel when laying down any type of compound, especially with large trowels and large areas.

    • @boatworkstoday

  • @ckm-mkc
    @ckm-mkc 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you ever use any two-pack high-build spray fillers? In automotive restoration, these are used quite a bit and can build up to 1/4 in one application. Never seen any pinholes and they sand great. Also, no smoothing required as they are self leveling.... Evercoat Slick Sand is one product I've used in the past, a lot of show cars use this product.

  • @louisrosales9888
    @louisrosales9888 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a of question: why do you need the pva if you are going to put a fill coat over it? If you don't use the pva won't you save some work (no need to wash it off and no need to sand and it will give a chemical bond instead of a mechanical bond? (I don't have much experience working with resin and fiberglass in boats but I do have some experience with surfboards where there is a laminating step and a sanding coat with wax added.
    Just trying to understand the different requirements.
    Thanks

    I think on this job I would have used a grinder to round off one corner of the trowel so it would fit into the edge. You could smooth from edge out.
    Why did you put on the white gel coat over the glass? Then sand then fair?
    It seems that going to Faring from the glass would be less steps??

      Find a local automotive paint supplier. They will have a "prep wash", or a "Wax & Grease Remover". When I was working in an industrial painting facility, we used a lot of Grow Automotive #1705 Super Klean Wax, Grease& Silicone Remover. (We were painting fiberglass parts heavily contaminated with Silicone). You can also find it on Amazon, and they will ship it to California, so I assume it still meets the regs.

      Personally I love this compound. Not sure how well it came across on video but the first coat varied from 1/16" to maybe 1/8 tops. The second was more or less a skim coat mostly filling in the imperfections of the surface. After sanding I'd be surprised if there's more than an 1/8" left in the thickest spots.

    5 coats of compound? Millimeters thick is all you need, to level the surface. That's all.

    Does the 'fairing' act like bondo on a car? Rule for bondo cant be more than 1/4in thick of bondo or it will crack. Is this the same say if you had to build up one side a little more than the other would you use this or build it up with fiberglass before this stage? P.s great channel becoming one of my favorites as i am trying to learn more about this hobby

      I always try and keep the thickness of the fairing to a minimum; somewhere around 1/8" give or take. As far as how thick this stuff can be laid up, I don't know. Would be a good question for the TB tech support :-)

      If I have to build up more than that then I'll do the bulk of it with more glass, then fair ;-)

    TH-cam ran an ad from needtoimpeach.com during your video. You’ve lost me. I’ve unsubscribed. Bye. Enjoy your hate.

      I have no control over what ads Google decides to display

      Guess I’ll be going to boatworkstoday.com. Love your videos. Couldn’t take the full lobotomy ad that Google stuck in there. Sorry.

    • @boatworkstoday

      I'm afraid that you'll still see ads there as well as the video's are embedded from TH-cam :-/ About the only way I know of to avoid ads all together is to sign up for my Patreon (even a $3 level gets you ad-free versions of the vids). Not trying to talk you into it, just throwing it out there!

    I Love this channel you have taught me a lot but I did not like the add that popped up about impeaching Trump. I think politics should not be in you tube channels and I am wondering did you approve this add.

    • @boatworkstoday
      @boatworkstoday  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's not something I have any control over :-/ That's all Google (which own's TH-cam)

    • @LOJOMarine
      @LOJOMarine 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a TH-cam channel also and I get to pick the adds I want and so can you please look into it

      Well, you know more about this that I do lol :-) I don't know where to do this
