[@theodorvoege2542]

Did you use the roll additive on the first panel?

[@abakers1374]

Thank you for your blog post on calculating how much material is needed for a painting project. I was on the verge of buying 3 times more paint than needed!!!

[@lisakay4821]

That’s our boat! Thank you, Andy, for all your help and advice to my husband over the winter. He is never afraid to learn and try something he’s never done before, plus he’s a perfectionist. A successful lifelong combination for him, and a great outcome.

[@boatworkstoday]

He really did a fantastic job ;-)!

[@josephk2958]

Nice boat! Your hubs should be proud of his work.

[@JacsWagen]

Did he roll and tip or only roll? Curious minds wanna know... Or did I miss that in the vid?

[@lisakay4821]

KJac Only rolled. He wasn’t having much luck with tipping.

[@rb-rq7kq]

it looked great

[@meatdog]

Finally how to tip and roll paint technique. Thanks. I now know I can do this. And I appreciate you telling what kind of roller you used and all the great hints.

[@SVBlownAway]

Nice video and well presented - One small tip Ive found after 20 years of hand painting is to use a round edged roller and not a square shoulder one like you were using, it leaves less lines in the paint from the rolling stage.

[@dss9775]

What brand roller?

[@williamgeorge5969]

Yeah true. Bullet or double bullet roller sleeves I think they are called here.

[@albatross5466]

I have just started a refit of my 1973 Grand Banks 36. I have a looooong way to go, but watching you gives me hope. Thanks Andy.

[@robertmarcotte4652]

From an old guy (70) and second generation painter& 50 years experience who has done just about all paint applications with materials of whatever you can think of. I gotta say you sure do know your stuff. Good video

[@bellmichael]

We have used Alexseal on our 60' charter catamarans we build for the last ten years. We roll (no tipping) the hulls and spray small parts (masts, booms, etc). Easy to repaint and buff to look new after years. One cat is seven years old with same paint and a buff this year...looks new. We use Home Depot "Best" white 6" rollers. Use a good respirator.

[@kiddiescripterkiller]

Trick for rolling without leaving roller lines... So you don't have to back roll, roll off the tip of the roller at about a 15 angle on the panel half way into your next roller width, every time you load the roller with paint. Then roll towards the handle and go completely top to bottom in a single line. Jump over half a roller width and repeat. It makes the tip "feather" out the paint as you keep moving and it' doesn't throw off the paint on the edge of the tip. Also pay attention to the speed you are rolling at, if you roll too fast, it will throw paint off the end of the tip and defeat rolling off the tip. Plus every now and then or even each time, wipe the tip of the roller off on the surface, before you roll off the tip. Then you can roll a little faster... When you get to a corner, turn the roller around so you can get close to the corner without hitting the handle, but first, roll off both ends. Once you master this you can paint anything with out roller lines... and paint really fast. Each paint will have a certain speed you can roll it out without throwing lines and it every where else. And you really shouldn't reroll the paint once you get it on, then you will find yourself fighting to get it smooth again. But with this technique, you won't need to.

[@richardcournoyer1473]

i would like to see a vid on your procedure i paint houses and I'm an ace with latex rolling i throw it as heavy as possible.

[@barberakeller5798]

back in the late 80s a friend met a paint retailer at the Daytona fl flea market and was impressed by his product. this paint looks the same, water thin, roll and tip. we painted his 45' 30ton ketch in a quiet cove in the Bahamas while in the water from a 13' inflatable. three people in all, one rolled, one tipped and one to control the dingy. the finish was very impressive, ease of useand after 10 years compounded back to a wonderful shine.

[@calvary1808farm]

Rolling only sounds like a solid approach for my project! Thanks for this demo!

[@josephk2958]

I have to admit, i was getting a little bored with these product testing vids however, this one made it worth while. I'm very impressed with how the rolled out panel turned out. Thanks Andy! P.s. I'll learn patience one day.

[@ubbeus]

Joseph K learn patience - which KZbin video is that?

[@petertheriault9012]

I watched this video before my second coat of paint and incorporated the downward finish strokes What a difference no visible lines left. all....looks like glass thanks!

[@user-ym9wb2mk5e]

How in the world can anyone downvote you? Your time, energy, cost of supplies, and knowledge is being supplied to us for free. For me, this vid is very helpful. I am about to start painting my 1998 Nitro bass boat and was trying to figure out if I should roll, roll & Tip, or just spray with an hvlp gun. I am using the Rustoleum Topside paint from Lowes, so it actually seems like I should roll and just leave it be, otherwise use the hvlp but major prep for overspray since there are so many curves and lids on the boat. Either way, thanks for taking the time to do this for us, learned a lot!

[@ralphfreeman255]

Awesome idea using the tape on the roller. I've always 'assumed'... I'm in the middle of a 23' Mako restoration and currently painting! Almost there. I have two coats of Petit Ezpoxy "Bikini Blue" on the hull and I must say, I am really pleased with the results. I've been tipping side-to-side (as some other vids demonstrated), BUT I wish I saw this video!!! Yup, sagging, brushing impressions even with a 10-15% thin.. The vertical direction makes so much more sense. I will apply the last coat using this vertical stroke method and see if I can tell differences. ALWAYS appreciate your time with these How-To's, I know it takes time. Enjoy your family and weeks to come!

[@chrish2996]

Andy, your painting skills are amazing. Bob Ross would be proud. Perfect.

[@MABeerBrewer]

I can't thank you enough for your videos. As a 1st time boat owner beginning to work on a recently purchased 1977 Montauk 17, you've been a tremendous resource. The boat has suffered from shabby DIY jobs (ex: using plastic anchor plugs to rectify stripped screws in the hull). While I'm pretty handy, you've made me comfortable with a number of decisions including: paint or gel and fixing holes, among others. I wish you did electrical because it's a bird nest?! I'm not looking for perfection, but after following you I know it will look a lot better when I'm (we're?) done!

[@Aceman597]

Nice video. I tipped once and found out that if your doing it outside you need low humidity. I found best to paint in am as dew rises. It was around 8 to 1030am for me.

[@chrislangdell117]

So very cool results. I have always tipped out with a foam brush. Just to keep possible brush hairs out. That paint is very impressive. Tips out well and rolls out well. An extra 5% reducer couldn't hurt especially in the heat. My one comment for future advice to your viewers is to start painting early in the morning and in the coolest weather possible for the paint type and or factory recommendations. Direct sun light will evaporate the reducer more, cure the paint faster and possibly cause chatter and orange peel. Spent a few years in your line of work and laid up several hundred gallons of Varnish on classic runabouts like the Christ Crafts and Gar woods. I found my best flowing results were in the morning in 50 to 60 degree weather. Varnish in the summer was difficult especially outdoors. Always used alot more marine grade penetrol to help it flow out but at a great risk of sags and curtains in the bright work. Cool chanel by the way.

[@sallyb3]

Wish we had these videos of yours back in the day when I was working on boats

[@olumjumi]

wow, just what I was looking for. Bob Ross and you Andy are wonderful to watch.

[@livindahdream92]

Fantastic to know this due to the fact I’m in the process of restoring my boat and I have been looking to roll on instead of spraying, I just have a little bit more preparation and then will be ready for paint, using my ole gel coat as a base or primer since it’s so old and underneath the epoxy I have already taking off.

[@newdogatplay]

Dude u are awsome i dont even own a boat wish i did but i still watch your stuf cause u kno how to do it right ,and show the masses how to ,

[@daningram3143]

Great job on all the surface prep and explanations!!! Fantastic, I’m getting ready to paint our yacht for the second time in 16 years! Thanks brother!

[@susanc.8009]

I paint my hull from a raft, rather than in a dirty boatyard. Since the first time, when the hull needed more cosmetic repair, I lightly sand then use One Shot sign paint, which is loaded with pigment. I paint close to the rub rail and boot top with a brush. Then I use a foam roller, being careful to get only a little paint on it each time. I put it on quickly, then tip slowly with the roller. Since the first time I painted, I only prime bad spots. Give them a coat of color, then roll the side of the hull once. (I do the other side another day.) This paint is an oil paint, and containing linseed oil, promotes mildew. This is easily cleaned off with a vinegar mixture occasionally, except for the nonskid, which requires a lot of scrubbing. After awhile the mildew is less a problem. The big thing is the masking tape. The very expensive 3m Scotch silver 225 allows me to tape one day and paint the next or when ever I get around to it ,as it is removable after days and even weeks. But remove the tape immediately after painting, as you would any tape.

[@jonathankerner2094]

Andy, outstanding tutorial. I am new to this, but I think you have empowered me. I was on Alexseal's website and I think I can do this! I have an older Wellcraft and she needs new colors! Thank you sir!

[@matthewfox3760]

Fantastic tips - pre cleaning brushes and rollers has saved me so many headaches - I start with a vacuum as my first step ( special clean nozzle used only on brushes and rollers)

[@albatross5466]

I worked in the industrial coating industry for a bit. The guys would tack a piece of duct tape to the bench and hold it off the edge. Then they would pass the roller over (under) the sticky side of the tape to remove lint, etc. from the roller cover.

[@jeffgrant4245]

How I wish this would have come sooner! I waited for you to come home with the scoop on Alexseal and ended up running out of time and bought a different brand that is a spray only application. Well,,,,,,, i ran into a problem with millions of little nats landing in the paint so I am actually in the process of building another bigger barn to spray the boat in. I could have taken the boat to a buddys and rolled this gold in his barn and been on the lake!😁 Thanks a million for what you do, great stuff!

[@russellpaci6664]

Thanks for the demo, you teach the DIYer that it can be done and not to be optimist to try something new. Sound like a great paint to try.

[@superformOG]

i just found out my top paint is alexseal and it needs some repairs - i have been watching you for so long and now you have some really good how to vids just for me!

[@skrapenpennies9947]

Best rolling and tipping video I've seen

[@livindahdream92]

Thanks for posting, bought my Alexseal primer and paint because of this video, just applied primer to just a few spots for practicing and will try sanding and paint on same spots tomorrow, great post to learn as this is my first boat and restoring job for DIY projects

[@blaster-zy7xx]

Wow, that rolled only surface is very impressive! I think I'll give it a shot.

[@andyblyth4519]

Thank you for a very informative video, and the series I have watched with your knowledge. As a complete novice in these areas of glassing and painting, and generally what to look for and how to do it, KZbin has been invaluable. Your channel is one of the ones I have subscribed to.

[@johnlcallaway]

Thank you very much for this. I hate to paint, and if all I had to do was roll, then I think I'd be good. I'm also not a 'pretty boat' kinda guy and 'good enough' is what I am for. I'm going to build an instrument panel for my binnacle soon, that will be a good time to practice my fiberglass and finishing work. Thanks for all you've shown us.

[@projecttrawler]

Yup I'm sold on the Alex Seal paint. Going through, as Mads would say, somewhat of an extensive refit. I need to get on Patreon with you pretty soon! If that Patreon can make his boat look that good, I think I can as well.

[@Finelineboatworks]

I repaired awlgrip and was able to wet sand and buff. Turned out great. 1500 and 2000 grit.

[@kevenlincks8016]

That looks amazing, I will definitely be using this paint for my restoration.

[@dessilverson161]

Nice video. I do the final rolling out starting one side and a term I use is "lead with the arm". In other words the side of the roller with the frame on is the lead edge and the free edge is the trailing edge.

[@kfujillama9548]

great video. back rolling is also called "laying off" the coat. one thing that we did when we finished painted/epoxy on floors and related, was to use a clean roller with reducer only to lay off the surface. might work better but it is an extra step

[@JAR2.0]

Excellent presentation of both the how and why elements of this process. It's good to know the how but the why sets the technique into memory like nothing else. Well done!

[@DC--zr8gw]

As with the other video’s, some really good information here! I am fixing up a 1954 12 ft boat as my first time boat project, and I have found most of the things I needed to know about fibreglass repair and painting on this channel! Keep it going and thanks so much!

Thanks for your AWESOME (time consuming) demo for us. I am going to use this to paint the bottom trim of my Fiberglass SUV (Mazda Tribute) in which I have tried 4 times to recover/remodel as it is 20 years old. (all the cr*p they say works, DID NOT (Bumper Recoat, Bumper Rejuvinate, Bumper Coat, Auto paint (that was a test) and all chip off or do not stay - huge waste of time. So I thought, what is a tougher paint - Hello Boat painting is what I searched for, so thanks a MILLION!

Always great advice. Using Alexseal products on my 88 proline. Getting close to top coat.

[@caseydixon8714]

Old painter told me when you give the coating its final lay off with a roller that you should be moving away from the open end on the roller.. doesnt leave as hard of a line from the roller in the paint

Can you use alexseal to paint a truck without using a clearcoat

[@richardcorcorran8965]

Wow what a difference from the wet to the dry finish

[@royawatchmenonthewall3091]

I enjoy learning from you. I wish you would show how to fix big holes. We bought a boat that went through Harvey. We lived 850ml. away when we got there it had really big holes in it. The local boat workers wanted 8000 we just can't afford that. They are fixing a lot of these. Our old girl is a 32ft. J sailboat with a double Hull. Most holes only went through outer Hull but was told that I would need to cut the inner out and repair from the inside out. Then repair the inner hull. This is something I would like to learn anyway and I know quite a few of these boat's are being fixed. Thank you

[@trungppham]

Hello, Thanks for all of the videos! I am about to paint my boat with all of the steps you laid out in these 2 videos. With Alexseal, do I have to paint the whole boat in one sitting? Or can I break it up into a few days? The next question is, how do I continue painting where I left off? Do I have to sand and overlap in areas? Or do full panels of the boat have to be done in one roll? Thanks!

[@110welding]

I am about to pick up a 1972 -18 footer. The white paint on it looks ok, I just want to paint some side trim and too trim. I feel confident now of doing myself, thanks for your videos, you should have your own school

i am learning so much from your videos. you are a very effective presenter. i have been trying to learn how all this would translate into redoing an old golf cart body that needs a lot of fiberglass repairs. if i painted using this method would i still need to do layers of clear coat, or is this even how i would paint a golf cart? thank you for any help you can give me

[@ddouglas1653]

Wow! Amazing results from using a roller!?! Unbelievable. I will be looking into Alexseal for a Catalina 25 project I believed impossible for me to do by myself. I want a black hull, yes black. And yes, I know I will see every single imperfection as though it was under a magnifying glass. Lol. New subscriber btw. I used to paint cars for a living back in the 80's, so I have clue what it takes but things have come quite a ways looks like. I just might get into it again. Great work!

[@robertneumann1393]

The weather didn't cooperate here in NY this past week so I had to put off applying my topcoats of Alexseal (Etheral Blue). So glad that I could learn from your instruction in this video. While I had bought the Corona Heritage for tipping, based on what I saw, I'm going to just roll it on. I am using 6" superfine Epifanes foam finishing rollers. I also bought the Redtree mohair rollers you suggested last week and will try them as well. Hope I can duplicate your results. Thanks for another great video.

[@boatworkstoday]

I'm really loving the Redtree rollers for this. Lays down such a uniform film it's hard to go wrong. Just be mindful on the amount thinner in the mix. When rolling it out, if there's bubbles don't worry about it too much, they'll pop and level out. I would practice on some small areas to get a feel for the process before taking it to a large section of the boat :-)

[@robertneumann1393]

@@boatworkstoday Advice well taken. I have also used Coosa board on some transom work on my project (23' Seacraft cc inboard). Followed your fiberglassing and fairing techniques and that came out great. Would like to send you some photos offline of my adventure on this job. Wish you were on KZbin 30 years ago. I would have avoided a ton of mistakes.

Hey man I love you videos, always very informational. I had a couple questions about the product you were using. 1. Is the paint a final stage or do you still need to add a clear gel coat after? And if no gel coat is needed can you sand out imperfections and buff out?

[@JCCruising]

I noticed when you added the reducer and activator that the cans were full and you spilled some. If you will hold the can sideways and have the pour spout at the top it will let air into the can and won't spill.

I would like to try this method of painting on my 2003 PleasureWay RV. It has a Fiberglass body. Would this method work for the clearcoat over the paint? I have some spidercracks and one stress crack to fix. I have learned a lot watching you. I am going to use FlexEpox to lay down the Griffco 1.0 oz chopped strand mat. Probably 3 layers outside and one or 2 inside the edge of the wheel well. I will use Thixo Flex tubes to finish that and all the rest. Wish me luck!

[@donaltman9780]

How long do you wait between coats doing this? I used the roll and roll like the first panel you did. After one coat I can tell I will need at least one more possibly two. Thank you for showing us all your handy works and taking time to explain each step. My old boat already looks much better!

[@tammyscot473]

Do you have any recommendations for how to do the deck of the boat in regards to sections? I'm wondering if you have to do every inch in one session or if you can do, say the bow, then the cockpit, etc. and how you would butt up the dried paint to the new wet paint that you would be doing? Can you respond in regards to both the priming and painting?

[@michaelcoburn5123]

Thanks Andy for another great video... love your channel. Rolling/rolling and tipping on flat surfaces seems pretty straight forward. However, I was wondering if you have any tips for painting inside corners, tight places where a roller may not fit, small radius's, etc. I plan to paint my deck soon and I am trying to figure out how best to attack some of the complex areas (like the cockpit and toe rail). BTW this would make a great video since there does not seem to be any good resources for this. Thanks.

[@kevinfisher1345]

Good thing about those rollers is they are pretty compact and fit into most spaces. However, for tight spots or places where can not roll. Get out as much excess paint from the brush as you can. (might even shake it a little bit) Then dab the brush with the end of the bristles to apply the paint if you can get brush into that space. After paint dabbed on, then tip it like shown in the video, stroking both directions. Again if possible. For tight corners, it will be bit harder to brush both directions, and would suggest putting brush as close to corner as you can and pull away from the corner first, then brush opposite direction along the entire length of the corner. Best you can do and with little bit of practice should come out pretty good. Tape!

[@o.h.w.6638]

[@dwayneroberts6616]

Wow Andy I'm sold on Alex seal and I am definitely going to go through you for the materials. Can I paint over existing gel coat? Also I will be using it on the top of the of the boat above the rub rail after some fiberglass work and crack repair filling them in with polyester filler. Would this paint stand out horrendously compared to the regular gel coat below the rub rail? Eventually I would be ordering new graphics and painting the entire hull with Alex seal. Is it tougher to wet sand and buff?

[@fredericmora]

Outstanding videos! very detailed! Should one cut the painted area with wet&dry sandpaper (1000, 1500, 2000 grit) once well cured and buff it up? (like you show in the repair with alexseal video) to get rid of dust or insects marks. Thanks

[@MrRoach-yo3mz]

I'm gonna have to give the product a try, I normally use EcoPoxy GelCoat (self Leveling) but it takes a heavy coat for a smooth finish like your product does here. Not that its bad, just 3 times more product I have to use to get the same results, Great Video, Thanks

[@robertnortan87]

Fast you did, quick maybe not. You are the pro 👍

[@daviddeschutter8288]

When tipping, you should start on the same side that you started rolling on. You rolled from the left to the right then tipped from the right to the left. So the material on the left had flashed off more then the material on the right.

[@probert2431]

Hey Andy have you used Dupont Imron? I've used it for years. You can spray it or roll and tip it and it's easy to repair. You can wet sand and rub it out.

[@mallow173]

Wow....that turned out nice, very nice! I know this was a learning video for me but i'd really like your opinion on the final look, i know it's sometimes different in the video as compared to what you actually see. The video sure looked like the rolling only approach worked pretty darn good? I'd like to think i'm a perfectionist, but man those two finished looked pretty darn close. Awesome and thanks for sharing!

[@VacFink]

If I'm understanding tipping right, your wetting the brush just enough to keep it neutral, neither delivering paint nor trying to pull it up off the panel right?

[@boatworkstoday]

Exactly ;-)!!

[@kevincraig4208]

Thanks Andy - Really great to find a roll and tip product thats actually repairable (Former awl grip devotee - Cant wait to try this product). Definitely a game changer. Thank you for another great video. By the way I noticed you're not wearing a Chem filter/respirator mask - Is this because it's impossible to make an instructional video wearing one or because Alex seal makes a product who's fumes are actually non carcinogenic?
