Fiberglass Boat Painting Made Easy: Prep, Paint and Top Coat with a Roller

David Singer at Rocky Point Boat Worx discusses how he preps a boat for a fresh coat of paint using the roll and tip method. After that the paint and top coat are all applied with a roller brush to make this paint job easy, with a professional finish.

Top performance from this dude. I'm a total novice about to paint my 27' sailboat by hand and this Total Boat product is definitely what I'm going to use. I'll post some results later. Thanks for the confidence hit...😊

[@ryanaiken2548]

[@ChevyGuy-kx7im]

Great video! I always wanted to paint a stripe on my boat and your video gave me the push to do it..Thank you!

[@Star_of_the_new_moon]

Love the color thinking of the same myself

[@robertovalls]

Awesome video and miss the show your shop rocks!

I did run into issues using the same materials and colors in Florida at 90 + degrees, and after learning from my very expensive mistakes I can say this: Use as little brushable thinner as possible. The bubbles are solvent pops from trapped fumes trying to escape. Just like in the video, I tried with NO thinner at all (recommended in the can instructions) and had no bubbles or needed any tipping at all. Use only 220 between coats. I used 320 for the last coat thinking it would get even smoother (better is the enemy of good) and ended up with dry spots. Good luck.

[@mertonmarine878]

Thanks dude. Good advice 😊

[@7divad37]

NICE! I hope the boat I'm about to paint looks as good.

[@mikew3194]

How'd it go?

[@Holeysnappers]

Love this show, hope to take my 79 Seacraft there one day to be made new.

[@mikew3194]

Lifelong paint enthusiast with tips you probably already know- I'd nail some pieces of wood together in an upside down T and drill into that, to create a paint mixer. funnels = friends You seemed to have 0 problems with dripping, on the boat and floor, so I think you had a proper amount of paint in the roller. Kick ass work, hoping to keep learning from this channel.

Ive also used this product on my bass boat. I didn’t use the paint thinner- it’s dry heat here in Az. And it was beautiful smooth thick coverage. ❤

[@aleenabeel8232]

simple and perfect !👌

[@trashman1358]

Thank you!

Epoxy primer paints right over gel coat sandable in a day you can body work right over the epoxy and recoat up to 7 days after the poly is 1:1 with a 10 percent reducer lays down like glass

[@PANACEA007]

Every product is different

[@richardlangford1411]

Put the paint on and back Roll it as you go !!

[@WO1Josh]

It dried with that nice finish?

[@johnpringle5842]

You gonna leave that hair, oh wait that’s on my phone. 😂😊

[@bashaz8559]

Is this onto existing gelcoat?

[@CoffeeTime9]

No you must sand first.

[@soldaat-van-oranje]

You always have airbubbles😂 the trick is to listen to your paint. He wil tell you when you ready😅

[@brendonr980]

Use automotive polyurethane way cheaper and comes out better epoxy 2k or sealer ,base coat binder coat and clear

[@gabylon1992]

What’s up, quick question what epoxy 2k primer do you recommend? And what brand paint will hold up best to south Florida weather

[@stoneinc2240]

Would love to know what primer and paint was used

[@Jraksdhs]

They literally showed the cans.

[@stoneinc2240]

You are correct. Must have missed that lol

[@cluelesstrainer]

Did you sand after the first coat? And why a six " roller? Why not a 9?

[@adl2005]

Doe's the top coat not not need to go through a filter before mixing.

[@richardlangford1411]

Do not shake is because it puts bubbles in your paint !

[@LCdonkeyshow]

Do you think I could do the same thing on aluminum?

[@richardlangford1411]

16 hours between coats !

[@richardlangford1411]

Don’t play with it get on with it !

[@donavenpatterson800]

You made this seem too easy lol

[@richardlangford1411]
