| Filling |
|
Mix up a batch of epoxy filled with wood flour and fill all the holes in the boat.
Be neat. You can also use Famowood wood filler. |
| Sanding |
|
Some people go crazy sanding and finishing boats. We dont. Theyre boats- not
pianos. If you use the boat, youre going to scratch it up. Paint to protect the boat.
You still need to be neat and clean but you dont have to go wild. Its very easy to
spend as much time painting a boat as building it. Your Choice! |
| Paint |
|
We dont supply paint. We recommend Interlux 279 as a primer and Interlux
topside enamel for the finish coat. We recommend epoxy coating the exposed
endgrain of the plywood bottom and side panels. (Straight Epoxy- no filler) You
can also epoxy coat the outside of the hull, if you like.
