I wanted Murray to do like a sanding disc shuffle like people do with cash, but he was too busy.

I was sweating today while sanding...(Im in Florida) Your nose makes me Thankful to be sweating. Im going with Alexseal paint been waiting all summer to get the temp and humidity lower. Enjoyed your video.

[@geniksonthego8963]

Thanks for watching. I wish we were in Florida (right now anyway) so we could be painting. I have heard great things about Alexseal. I also found out that acetone is not a good choice, and we should have used denatured alcohol.

[@geniksonthego8963]

Love your name as well!

Maybe spray painting or blowtorching the paint could eliminate bubbles in the paint and give it a controlled environment to dry off. That's what I would do with epoxy in my projects.

[@geniksonthego8963]

Maybe. I also found out acetone is bad for it.

[@VishalKahar-td9dn]

@geniksonthego8963 I agree since it dries off much quicker than other solvents.

[@storyofstargazer218]

all part of the process! fairly certian ive probably sanded away thousands of dollars worth of epoxy, wheb i bought the piece of teak for the wheel i made the board was so expensive i figured out it cost 86 cents worth of sawdust i made just to cross cut the piece once

[@geniksonthego8963]

They don't say "bring out another thousand" for nothing. Every mistake, it's probably better not to calculate.

[@storyofstargazer218]

@ yeah i dont add up what i spend on the boat more than id ever dreamed of, ill probably have almost 80-100000 into it by the time its all said and done

[@geniksonthego8963]

@ yeah, it can get out of hand pretty quickly.

[@storyofstargazer218]

@ i wouldnt call it out of hand its sort of just is what it is, it takes what it takes, at this point its a new boat essentially at a fraction of the price i couid buy a new boat for
