The 1974 Chris Craft “Ruby” getting her hull painted using the roller and brush tipping method. When an expensive spray paint job is out of the question this is the next best alternative. As you will see she looks great.

    I called up Vern to ask about painting the fiberglass pop-top on my 1974 Westfalia…he was a huge help, knew what he was doing and had no problem sharing his knowledge with me, I now feel more confident in taking on the painting of my fiberglass top…thanks Vern…

    yes we sand between coats because that is how single part paints adhere to each other. it’s a mechanical rather than a chemical adheasion like two part paints. the voc’s are also less so they don’t smell as bad as two part paint. we have found that if you sand between every coat it will look better and last much longer.
