Gloss Paint | 1st Coat of White

We left the previous post with the boat ready for the first coat of white gloss.

I thinned the paint with 10% Epifanes thinners, and rolled it on and tipped it out with my favourite brush.

Here she is.


And here is the transom.


This is the view from the front with tape removed.


And again here is the transom, without tape.


The finish is OK, but not amazing. I found it very difficult to keep the wet edge, and it shows. Although I think that might be due to a lack of experience on my part.

But it covers well and flows out very nicely, leaving no brush marks.

We're on our way!
