Great job, looks fantastic and awesome save there! I love how you guys shared what went wrong and how you have the perseverance to push ahead! That my friends is what boat building is all about, these experiences are making you guys pros! Cheers to a great video and end result!
Thank you brother! Since this is our first time, we’re bound to screw up! 😂 I figured we might be able to spare people some mistakes of their own. CZcams is filled with great vids on how to make perfect things, but life and boat building are definitely not that! Thanks for the kind words! Channels like yours inspire us and many others to get out there and do what we’re passionate about! If anyone’s reading this follow DIY WATERWORLD for some entertaining and wild boating and building adventures! 🍻
You don't know how much I appreciate showing mistakes. We're all human. Sometimes we get in a hurry or just overly eager and have to work backwards a little. 👍
You’re very welcome Dwight! The reality is that most things you see online have tons of mistakes that never get shown. And me being a newb makes me overly eager like you said and impatient sometimes. But I don’t Mind showing my screw ups so people can learn from my mistakes! 🤙
Thanks a Lot👍 for showing the how to process 👏👏
Youre very welcome! Thank you so much for watching!🤙🛥️🌊
Ahh the nickel trick for corners! Someone has been watching boatworks! Looks good guys!
😉 haha! You are correct sir! Incredible how perfect the nickel works for the corners! Thank you for the kind words! 🍻
Wassup brother. Even though it's a year old, I appreciate your honesty. Your facial expression is so sincere that it makes me think the freegin dog died or you screwed up a clients boat. The inspiration continues. 👍💪
🤣🤣🤣 yeah that sucked. Worked so hard to prep it and I screwed it up lol but you live and learn. We’re about to do the floor again anyway. This time, the right way! 🤙
@perfectfitboating Have uou heard of Marpro Gel coat? If so, what's your thoughts on it?
@aeroscout8409 yes, mar pro is a company that rebrands alot of different marine products. I saw them pop up at a local shop like a year ago maybe more. I don’t know what product they’re rebranding though. We’ve used FGCI gelcoat from the beginning and have had great success. We just used it today actually to fair part of the floor of a transom we’re working on. Check out our instagram you can see it there. I’ve sprayed it, rolled and brushed it and it’s awesome!
@perfectfitboating Okay, thanks. It's getting hard to find stuff over the counter these days.
The Transformation is truly night and day.. Hard work pays off.. Looks great! Congrats
Thank you guys! We’re really trying over here🙏
@@perfectfitboating it will pay off for sure. ❤️
Very nice job 👌 and thanks for sharing. Learned a lot from from videos. Awesome job guys 👍👍👍
Thank you so much Johnny! We appreciate the comment and we’re happy that it was able to help! Thanks for watching! 🤙
So got the weather to glaze radar bar holes. So gathered my nerves, and finally put a coat of USC Glaze over the small holes in my radar bar. Started a little shaky cause I mixed a large batch ( bout a 3" puddle) and it kicked quicker than I expected. So mixed up smaller batches and it worked out so much better. Knocked down some of the excess after setting so it's not as time consuming when I finalize for gel coating... Almost there brother!!!!!
Bad ass! In this weather it’s always best to do smaller batches. I try to keep any type of resin batches to 8oz or less. Just kicks too fast. I’ve even thought about placing the resin in a cooler with ice right before mixing so I have a longer working time.
Send pics so we can see!🤙
@@perfectfitboating Will do!!!
Super deck 👍
Thanks! We tried to give it a nice facelift and think it came out pretty good! 🤙
DIY Waterworld sent me here. Nice job !
Right on!!! DIY Waterworld’s channel rocks! 🤙 thank you!
Great job 👍 one thing about working on boats is things will at some time or other go wrong 😂 all about how your gonna sort it out. Great save 👍
Whatever can go wrong… WILL!!! 😂 My new slogan for the boat is “Nothings easy”! Because when something has to be fixed it’s never a quick easy fix. It’s always 5 times longer and 5 times more expensive! 🙄 thanks for the comment! 🍻
Man that is really looking good!
Thank you brother! We’re trying over here! 🍻
Nice. I did a similar non-skid using Awlgrip paint and Soft Sand non-skid particles. Same process.
Nice! How’d it turn out? I’m about to do a nonskid job with paint for the first time on an outboard bracket. I’m starting to like paint better than gelcoat! Thanks for the comment Ray! 🤙
👍🏼🙌🏼
It’s all good brother. Looks pretty amazing! Great project,
Thank you buddy! Appreciate you watching! 🤙
@@perfectfitboating complete overhaul of an older pontoon. So your video was a big help, thanks.
That’s awesome! Good on you for taking on a project like that! I hope our other videos help you on your journey to getting her water ready!🤙
A lawn seed spreader works really good for adding non skid.
That’s a pretty awesome idea!🤙
Nice recovery on the non skid!
Thank you! Didn’t come out perfect like I wanted it to but still came out decent! 🍻
I have a boat that right now I am doing the same job or I would like to get that material please ❤
Should have just mixed the non skid I the gel coat or paint and rolled it on. Much more uniform and embedded
Right about that! Thanks for the comment! 🍻
Great video, new subscriber! What was your paint gun setup? Tip size? Pressure? Thanks!
Hey Bret! Thanks for the comment!
My setup was a fairly cheap one off Amazon. Depending on where you are you have to work fairly quick if it’s hot. And if you don’t you’ll have to throw the gun away. Seeing as this was my second time spraying and I’d probably screw up, a cheaper style gun made sense for me. That being said, I used a 2.3mm nozzle (for shooting gelcoat it needs to be a bigger size than standard sizes) I sprayed at 50 psi and I have a chiller I use to keep water out of the gun. You can probably get away with a small water separator attachment. It lays down ok. I’ve also learned that mixing gelcoat with duratec lays down gelcoat with the finish of paint and you can use a smaller size nozzle. I’d look into that if I was you. Hope that helped! Thank you for the sub brotha!🙌🍻
what silicone did you use? silicone doesn't usually grip to plastic surfaces or fibreglass
4200 marine grade 🤙
Excellent work brother...thank you for sharing your work with us but there's one thing that I have to know - how on earth did you persuade your missus to help with the boat? My wife runs for the hills the moment I start working on our boat😂😂😂😂...huge respect from zimbabwe 🇿🇼
My man thank you so much for the comment and for making me laugh! 🤣
To be honest, I don’t even have to ask! I’ve been blessed with an amazing woman who is always willing to learn and get her hands dirty! And most importantly, encourages my crazy ideas like restoring a 35 year old boat! So I really can’t help you! Maybe you can try some type of negotiation 🤣 thank you for watching my friend! 🤙
@@perfectfitboating 👍
Donde puedo conseguir esa pintura 😊
No es pintura es gelcoat. La arena se compra en diferente gruesuras y si puede mezclar con el gelcoat antes de aplicar. No se adonde estás localizado pero en Amazon se vende o en una tienda marino local. 🍻
All gel coat layer was used with waxed gel coat ?
No. Unwaxed then waxed for the final coat.
How did you get your gelcoat to cure outdoors in an uncontrolled environment?
By adding the right amount of MEK.
@perfectfitboating is more better outdoors??
It’ll cure outdoors or indoors
Lei è davvero bona. Niente male!!
Thank you buddy!
I would have used white sand
That works too 🤙
El nonslip
Thats not quite the way to add nonskid. Better way is mixing it up with topcoat paint and applying it with roller
Sure it is. This is one way to do it. If you watch Andy from boatworks today he uses this method regularly. Your method works as well. Different strokes for different folks. Thanks for the comment. 🤙
Why restore something that was crap when new?
Because we believe in turning crap into not so much crap.
I get that, and it's very admirable however I hate seeing the hard work and talent put to a style of boat that strays so far from my tastes. Had I the money, youth and health my choice would be a wooden New England side trawler. That aside I'm limited to my 1976 USCG Webber's Cove motor whaleboat. Anyway good job and best of luck.
Thanks man. A trawler is something we’d want in our future. Something we could live on and loop in. One day! 🤙
How can anyone listen to this guy. How about reshooting your video again, correctly?? Forget it.
Yet here you are commenting and helping this video reach more people. Jealousy looks ugly on you bud. Hope your day gets better. 🤙
@@perfectfitboating LOL
Tell me why you leave slippery edge on all the nonskid areas? Please stop. People slip and fall overboard or hurt themselves all the time due to faulty paint jobs that go more for bling than function!
