Very nice work. You make it look so easy.
Appreciate the contents and talents
Going over well in the UK - excellent overview
Best boat prep and primer video I've seen - thank you and really helped in planning the topside work on my Chris Craft Commander
Outstanding. Great tip on taping off to,ease the paint line compounding. Thx
with the awlcraft 2000, how long are you waiting between first, second, third coat?
It varies. Temps have alot to do with my timing between coats. The thumb test never fails and is how I determine when I do the following coat.
Dam, that mirror finish paint job!!! And great caulk technique. I want to caulk the ‘62 Sunfish I’m restoring and the tape & finger method looks like a winner
Have been going back and revisiting some of your videos, it’s been a while, hope all is well with you Sir
Thanks Bryan! I’m gonna do more videos sooner or later but in the past year and a half I have been to busy to record, wife has been battling the cancer and I’ve just not had the drive. Hard for me to concentrate on making videos right now. Hopefully the videos I have put out are still helping people accomplish their goals 👌👌
Yes Sir, I’m sure that your videos are help people, have been, and will for a while. Definitely have to take care of family, truly hope for the best for you. Hope you don’t mind, sending prayers your way for you and yours. Take care Sir, we’ll see you on the next one.
Frankie thanks for all the instructions and training! I love watching them. Look forward to more man!
Hello, I watched your video. Excellent work and knowledge. What state do you work in? Checking in to ask if you would be interested in painting my 45ft boat day cruiser. Please respond as soon as you can. Thank you!
I’d definitely like to help you out. I’m currently recovering from a surgery but you can call Rappahannock yachts (804) 438-5353. And get details and exchange info and maybe we can figure out a game plan from there. You will speak with a lady named (Star or Patsy) look fwd to making your boat pretty!😁👌👌
Outstanding, just found you
Thankyou for this series, it's invaluable
Do you have a email would like to ask you opinion on my boat
Do you do any gel coat on top of that or is this paint strong enough by itself? Looking to paint my boat this same flag blue.
Just paint buddy. Definitely strong enough 👌
Excellent info!
Very professional and knowledgeable work. Keep posting videos like this one THANK YOU 🙏..
Your videos are the best. I’m gonna paint my 24 ft 241 Liberator again. I’m following your skills. I did it about 12 years ago, still have the boat ,redid all I could now it’s time to paint.great video You’re the Best!
What pound of pressure on the compressor or paint gun
Between 15-20 psi at the gun if I remember correctly.
Same. I painted my small lobster boat using only what I learned from Frankie's videos. Would hire him for my big boat. Grateful and hope you're not done showing your craft.
Thanks for a great video Frankie. Another great way of marking out is to hold the top edge of your spirt level against the known waterline etc, masking tape a pencil to the top of an appropriate sized spacer. Slide the space and attached pencil towards the hull along the spirit level until you make a mark. Cheers from Peter in Australia👍👍
I'm in the middle of a similar project. The finishing is great. But it would be even better to see a detailed video on the prep work. Cheers.
I have plenty of videos on the prep for various paint jobs. They are on here👌
Frankie, You are a blessing. Thanks for making it simple and straight forward 😎🙏🏼
What is the cost of the project like?
Around 4K materials included
I rewatched your video again…. Thank you for sharing your time and many talents…. All the best…. Chuck
Dam good video man question for you can you use the same paint underneath the boat the sides of the boat and top of the boat or is it different type of paint? I don't have any experience sorry I sound stupid.
love the videos. I have a question you said that one chemical you use up to 20% and mix it in the paint how would an amateur know how much 20% is not trying to sound stupid! Thanks bud
Damn good job.
CAN SOMEONE HELP?! IM PAINTING MY BOAT AND ITS NOT SPRAYING SMOOTH IT LOOKS TEXTURED. IS IT NOT THIN ENOUGH?
There are multiple reasons why it could be textured. Too much paint and not enough air, didn’t sand the primer completely smooth, not enough thinner, too big of a spray cap, etc.
@@boatpaintingrestorationwit3029 yes after having done this now, I don't think I used enough thinner.
invaluable videos. Can't thank you enough. I know its not easy shooting and editing so I really appreciate it
I paint my ferro boat every year or so with quality acrylic house paint, just to keep it looking tidy, it cost 200 bucks for 10 liters and slap it on in a few hours I do minimal prep just scrape the loose stuff, it looks good from 50 ft away. Ferro hulls are impervious to water the paint is just for decoration really.
Thank you for doing everything you do man I do I learn a lot from you
Been missing seeing your content. Hope you are well. I am neither a boat owner, nor a painter, but your videos were informative and entertaining. Thank you for time you took to share your craftmanship.
All the time and sweat, I spent buffing and waxing my gel coat through the years I could have painted my boat 10- times. DOH! Thank you for your time and effort!
Hi Frankie just wondering how you preserve the water line when you are sanding back above & below the water line at the same time? Cheers
Hey Frankie
I’m glad I stumbled on this video. I needed something to relax my mind after torturing myself trying to put on vinyl striping made by sea choice on my boat. No matter what I did to lay it straight, it would Make kinks and lots of bubbles. Tried a second time with the same result.
Good Lord Frankie what a finish!! How many hours from start to pin stripe on the topsides?
Great job... but thought it looked better in grey lol
are you doing a 50/50 pattern of your color pass?
love how you go step by step telling us newbies the hows and why's, i'm going extreme jet black gloss on a 42 foot cruiser so already know any and every flaw will show through thanks for making your videos, was no half stepping and the final results was worth it
Great job doing instruction. Fantastic work. A pleasure watch and a great deal learned. Thanks.
What deepens if you burn through with the final sanding? Should I just hit it again with the primer? It’s very small
I love watching your videos
Nice job 👍👍❤❤
Can you do anything like the blending you did there when spraying gel coat ? I've been struggling with halos showing through when spraying color (mostly darker colors, ).
I'm out in Southern Maryland and looking to paint my 37 sliverton. I want a brilliant white. Is it more expensive for other colors and who did that paint Jin cost on this sail boat?
If i am not able to spray dobto my small garage can i roll paint and get Good finish im looking at 18ft olimpic
I just wonder how many asses got whooped for blazing thru the parking lot while you were painting. I know you blocked it off but I also know how dumb and inconsiderate people can be !
