Day 78: Hull Primer

We laid the primer on the hull today.

It was the last forecasted sunny day for a while so we had to go for it.  Our shop will not heat up enough to spray the auto paint unless the sun is out to warm the metal siding on the shop.

Here is our paint system.

Pressure pot and HVLP gun.

The compressed air goes though this thingy and the water gets filtered out.

Our paint is still not going on smooth... so a few days of sanding for me.  I hope we can work out the issues before the color and clear coat go on.
