Forward Deck Well | Refinishing

I left the newly applied paint in the footwell and the forward deck well to cure. It took 48 hours to fully harden.

Then I inspected the results.

The footwell was fine, but all was not well with the forward deck area.

The deck itself had missed patches and brush marks where I had not been careful enough.

Knowing that I would not be happy to leave it like that, I decided to reprepare it and paint it again.

The vertical surfaces were all fine, so I just burnished them with a medium abrasive nylon pad.

Here I am wet sanding the deck itself with a P400 grit.


This was tedious, but I have no intention of doing it again so it has to be right!
