Just seen your video. Doing the exact same thing to my 14-ft. Singing a lot of videos. The best one yet. Found out if you apply a second coat of the product you must do it within the length of time of it becomes tacky if not if you let it cure you need to go back and resend it down just a hair just to knock the roughness machine off of it. Then apply the second coat. Found this information on the products website. For application details 🤘🤘
It's looking great. Love seeing the restore process. I wish I had time and space to do something like this. You could run a trotline from this boat. Look forward to seeing it on the water.
Thanks, Tommy! I think it's fair to say that we WILL run a trotline from this boat.. and I hope that it WILL be you who teaches me how to do it. I have a goal to get this thing up to 100% so we can chase those stripers in the fall.
I looked it up. You're right! That stuff ain't cheap! (Neither is anything else these days. Just wait until you hear what I have to say about the cost of aluminum.)
So cool I love doing this kind of stuff Between fishing and stuff like that is why I’m always way behind on house and yard maintenance On your paint like … You will be the only one who knows, notices or cares about the very small defects you pointed out but I do get it …you know. You could of course get some pinstripe tape and tape that line
I'm very fortunate to have a teenage son who's willing to handle the yard work (and does so at a reasonable rate). I haven't had to cut my own grass for the past few years. I definitely need to do a better job of budgeting my time, though... It's a good problem to have. As far as the flaws are concerned: We're all our own worst critics. I'm not one to let perfection be the enemy of good, but it would be nice to achieve perfection *just once.* (It's never gonna happen.)
Why not just use aluminum blazer head solid rivets? Match the existing, soft enough they seal with a whack or two of a hammer/ air chisel? I’m in the middle of a 10ft Jon boat project, just picked up hundreds of rivets for dirt cheap
@@CareAgainFishing Thank You! I have a 1972 aluminum boat myself. I like your video. Probably going to go this route. It's the friendliest on the wallet considering boat paint costs. Thanks again for the video!
@@workforit2270 Thanks! I did my best. One thing I would recommend that isn't in the video: Don't measure the materials by weight. Measure by liquid volume (as the Fasco social media folks pointed out in another comment). The product is fantastic. It does everything I hoped it would do.

Will do

@@CareAgainFishing I'd be glad to show you the ropes. My first crabbing boat was similar to yours. We definitely have to chase some rockfish soon.
I used emeron paint it’s expensive but great also not good to breath in
I'll have to look that up!

@@kennyg5619 I didn't realize they were an option.
Nice work! What do you think the temp was in your garage when you applied the Super Slick?
@@stacychick67 High 60s? Low 70s?
@@CareAgainFishing thanks! In the Seattle area so need to do this now! ;)
How many times you think you've been in the water since then? Hows it holding up?
I'm in the ballpark of 20 outings, at this point. I haven't taken it easy on the boat, at all. It's holding up GREAT.

Fasco Epoxies Super Slick is 1:1 by volume, not weight. You should use a volume measuring cup.
Duly noted! Next time I'll make sure to do it that way, next time. The good news is: It still worked. Great product!
