- In this episode, I show you how to apply an epoxy barrier coat to your hull (and explain why you'd want to the first place). I also reveal my new web site, complete with links to videos, a project blog as well as a new "quartermaster" service for custom CNC carved quarter-boards, nameboards and more.

After some 35 years of sailing and bottom paint, I had the bottom of my Doughdish professionally taken down. They used a local company called Champlain Blasting Solutions, who came in with a truck, set up a tent around the hull, and blasted the hull with baking powder. It took off every scrap of paint in less than an hour, without damaging the gel coat. After repairs and fairing, the yard used Total Boat barrier coat, and then they applied a "flag" coat of blue hard bottom paint before applying a couple of coats of green ablative soft bottom paint. When the blue starts to show through, I sand off the bottom using 80 grit, and repaint the ablative.
Man, I wish I had that available. I'd do it in a second.
That hard work is paying off. She’s looking great!
I am redoing a 1958 MFG Runabout. It has a molded fiberglass hull. The old coating was bad so I stripped it down to the hull and decided on the Total Protect for primer, JD select for bottom coat and Wet edge for all the rest of the paint. I live in Alpena, MI which is a port town on Lake Huron. We actually live on the Thunderbay River so our boat will see a lot of use with extended time in the water. From my research, the products I chose should be great for my needs, maybe overkill for freshwater.
Sounds like you made good choices to me. I really impressed with the TotalProtect product. Its really versatile. I am working on video as we speak of using it to repair my nephew's old Thistle which had a complete gelcoat failure. It has too many hairline cracks to route out and fill with fairing compound, so I tried to do it with the TotalProtect to cover the entire thing and was amazed. Oy willed in every crack and crazing failure, smoother out and allowed us to save the boat. Its a MUCH easier alternative to re-gelboat the entire boat as far s I can tell. The primer shoudl be fine above the waterline too for stealing up the hull. Let me know how it works out after the season. I'm looking forward to hearing how it did for you. Good luck!
@@TheSalvationNavy right on. Thanks.
You do beautiful work! Keep up the videos. I plan on putting up some of my own video's of my refit and progress on my HA18. They won't be anything like yours but your videos definitely inspire me. Thank you!
Thanks! Happy to be of service. And let me know when you get some videos up. Happy to send some traffic yoru way and would love to see how it's going.
Enjoyed your video. I missed your posts and look forward to future projects. Thanks for your efforts.
Excellent and thorough video. This is exactly what I have been looking for on this topic. Thank you!
I just had my Grand Banks 36 blasted. They used glass bead in a water jet blaster. This kept the dust to almost nothing. It took them 3 days to set up and tent, blast, and breakdown & clean up. $3600.
4 coats with one gallon! Thats real
Good
Dude! Put a vacuum on that sander!
Well done this the best one i have seen
Signed. Much interested in your experience and techniques
The beginning of your video looked close to my boat moving from fla.I used a drop deck trailer to a flatbed tow truck. Did you use the little yellow foam rollers for the job?
Yes, the rollers really made the difference. I wasn't sure about it at first, thinking it was just a way to get people to buy more stuff, but it really did work MUCH better. They rollers were yellow and very very thin. But they rolled it on better than anything else. Really flawless results from them.
The scraper seemed to work really well, good idea. Could you share some details about it please? Make model where you acquired it kinda stuff.
Hey! Great video. I'm working on applying inter protect 2000 to the hull of my boat and had a few questions. Do you mind if I could give you a quick call and run through some questions I had? Thanks (I can leave my email if needed to exchange numbers)
What grits of sandpaper?
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!"
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?
