G'Day all. For any one interested I will have a go at posting some photos of our Chris Craft, It looked OK in the original photos but not up close which started right or wrong a tidy up.
I started with sanding the bottom back to bare timber and some of the suspect joints sealed with 3M -5200 followed by 2 coats of Norglass epoxy wood sealer, 2 more coats of Norglass epoxy Shipshape Primer/undercoat and 2 coats of Norglass Premium Gloss enamel teal colour then mixed with a small amount of Norglass green to give it a more of a turquoise shade, all with much sanding between coats followed by the original white band around the water line also in Norglass Premium gloss enamel.
The deck has been striped of all hardware to be chromed and the windscreen removed to refinish the deck and add new striping lines, that's the next job.now for the photos. Brian.
No good on the photos it states file to big only tried for one photo. How do I make the photo file smaller?
