Nice project. I hate to be that guy but I worked for Rust-Oleum up unit last year and have been in the paint business for over 20 yrs. Your product choice could have been better. You chose Rust-Oleum Undercoater which is just a thicker version of your standard general purpose paint. It is designed to protect from rust and provide a uniform color to an old under-body. The better choice for this project would have been the Rust-Oleum Pro Grade Truck Bed coating. It is designed to stick better and handle abrasion better than the undercoater. It will hold up better by design. i would hate for someone to put all that time and effort into a project like this and not have it last as long as possible. The roll on product will last longer as it would have put more coating onto the surface. it will also need to cure for 72 hours before it is set up. it will be dry but the chemistry needs longer to bond to the surface. if it was me, I would give it 7 days before exposing it to water. A primer coat will also provide you much better results than going straight on with the coating. I know it says no primer needed but a coating is only as good as its foundation it is on. www.walmart.com/ip/Rust-Oleum-Professional-Grade-Truck-Bed-Coating/36758513?athcpid=36758513&athpgid=athenaItemPage&athcgid=null&athznid=PWVUB&athieid=v0&athstid=CS020&athguid=5540e743-e45-16bddc1190dcc8&athena=true Tight lines.
Agree with everything you said my friend. I stumbled onto your channel looking for keel protection for my kayak. Just got a Old Town Vapor 10 Angler kayak a few weeks ago. Never kayaked before in my life, of course this will be for lakes and large ponds not the river. I have a deep respect for our local river (New River) here in WV. I fish the river but it has always been from the banks! I was watching this video and I whole hardheartedly agree with your statements early in the video. My son and I started our channel 11 years ago and we don't considered ourselves as professionals when it comes to hunting or even CZcams. We started our channel to show true hunting, not this TV hunting where there are monster bucks around every tree. We also wanted to show the real hunting experience and hunting in WV. Our channel has various things like reloading, casting bullets, some bushcrafting, leather work, knife building and my other hobby, Amateur Radio. Thanks for sharing your tip about the keel protection, I will have to look into that. Juddie - J & J TOA PS: I sub'd to your channel and will be looking at more of your videos.
I see you're using undercoating. Wood truck bed liner be the same thing? That's a good idea. I'll have to put it on my Pelican Bass Raider 8. In my opinion you're one of the greatest. Thanks for doing all the videos. You teach us a lot!
I have cleaned toilets, dug ditches, laid sod, put in sprinkler systems, been a pharmacy technician, purchasing agent, millwright, worked at a kaolin plant, Ga Power fossil fuel plant, became an RN, and now I’m a nurse practitioner. I hear ya, Hank! #bluecollarrootsarethebestroots
I’ve stopped at the over look going over too Virginia time to time. That’s a beautiful place. Same long time sub here just a name change to kick start this channel. You Rock!
I CAN NOT SPEAK FOR ANY ONE BUT MY SELF ! I AM HERE BECAUSE I FEEL YOU ARE THE BEST AT WHAT YOU DO !! BEEN A SUB FOR A GOOD LENGTH OF TIME & ALWAYS WILL BE FAITHFUL !! SO RALLY UP ALL 22 K SUBS ---- IF WE ALL GOT HANK JUST ONE MORE 50 K WOULD BE RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER !!!!!! LETS GO !!!!!
Nice video Hank. Like others have said, I am really glad I found your channel. You are always humble and down-to-earth, and I forget, knowledgeable. LOL I’m not that far from you down here in North Atlanta, but absolutely love the mountains. I agree with your opinion, and I always look forward what you have to say. Like you, just wish I didn’t have to work so darn much. God bless!
You used Rust-Oleum Rubberized Undercoating, that is a great start, it gives impact resistance, but if you use Rust-Oleum Truck Bed Liner over that it will be hard as nails, but the Bed Liner takes a week to cure according to Rust-Oleum. FYI: the Rust-Oleum Rubberized Undercoating keeps the Rust-Oleum Truck Bed Liner from chipping off.
Great video Hank! Nice cheap protection worth every penny. Great area views from your location! Can't wait to see you catch some hawgs from your little boat! :)
You are absolutely correct: a full time CZcamsr isn't a professional Angler! For that matter, not all full time tournament anglers are professional anglers, because many of them are not generating their income from angling.
I wish you the best of luck, in growing your channel large enough to make videos full time. There are plenty of CZcamsrs that have done so, that dont produce anywhere near the quality of videos, that you create. I personally, am not looking to create videos full time. I will be eligible to retire in 10 years, at which time, I will be able to fish 150 days per year. My life's mission is to spread the good news of Jesus Christ, and i should have plenty of time to do so, after I retire!
@@TeamJesusOutdoors I never really thought, took seriously, or considered that this would be an option. Didn't start this with that in mind. It's just started to happen. I've had several other channels tell me that I need to and that's crazy. Thanks for the kind words man.
Awesome content and awesome channel. I was on the fence about starting a channel but I wanted to just have fun with it. I want it to grow but I want to enjoy doing it as well. Thanks again for the all the info you put on here.
I’m about to pull the trigger and do this to my kayak. Do you have an update on its durability? Any who, thanks Hank! I love your vids and glad to be a sub! 🤘 tight lines!
If there is nothing legally to prevent people from saying they are a professional "something" then there are certainly those that will. Example Nutritionist Professional vs Registered Dietician.. ANYONE can say they are a Nutrionist with zero testing, licensure, schooling, or qualifications. Dieticians are legally professionals that go to school, pass state /national exams, and are certified /licensed. Many fields of professionals have people who attempt to use title descriptions similar to the real profession to make people think it's legitimate like Design Professional instead of Architect, Structural Consultant instead of Structural Engineer... While there isn't anything that prevents someone from calling themselves a Professional Angler, knowing how to do drop a hook in the water and trick a fish doesn't make one a professional. Although I really appreciate the insight and knowledge!! I actually put a lot more trust in those who say up front they are or are not professionals than those who try and run with a title. The Rhino stuff looks cool, may need to check into that stuff. Tight lines Hank!
I love our area too brother. Great video, these so called pro anglers are making videos about wing eating contest and stuff! Come on man. One of the reasons I watch you is your a good ole boy like me. You just know a but load about fishing! 😆 I hope you can do it for a living, I'm a fan bro just saying. (Just my opinion)
Hank you're more than nobody. You are Bass Geek. You're true to yourself, original, and a great dude that I'm proud to call my best bud. That's why we all keep coming back and you see the growth that you have and will continue to see. Keep being you bro cause that's why we love ya man!!
Thanks for the video!! How did it hold up? I am a kayaker, and was looking at protecting my keel. Is it a smooth texture? And would this create drag on a kayak and slow it down?

it's cool I meant to pick up the bed liner. I'll see how it works it's not a high dollar boat so trial and error is affordable.
Love what you do. Keep up the great videos!
Man I am so glad i found your channel. I could not agree more. The landscape is beautiful, i grew up blue collar myself
I'm more glad you found the channel. Thanks and it just makes use hard working.
Magnificent area for sure.
It's awesome.
So glad you showed us your beautiful valley/home. It’s your genuine solid personality that makes these vids so watchable.
Thank you sir. I love this place.
Dude I just clicked on your link so I can see your kayak project
That's why I rock this channel, and it is the truth and your personality. Keep rocking the viedo's.

Good video sanding is a great idea.
Thanks.

Yeah I picked up the wrong thing. I'll have to redo it more than likely.
so ur saying do both? this would work on an aluminum job boat
Jeffrey Acito No just the bed liner My wife picked up the undercoat and I just didn’t pay attention until after. Use the bed liner
Pal's is the best! Glad they are opening one in Abingdon. May try the rhino lining on my kayak. Just curious of how it lasts.
Yeah I see were they tried to fight against it.
That's beautiful country you live in, Bro!
It really is man. I love it.

I can't either now I just have to get some time off to go. Thanks for watching sir.

Thank you.
Lol never realized where you lived til i was driving by goin to lake c and was like “hey theres bassgeeks boat”.
hahaha yeah Getting ready to demo that old house and build a new one. Can't wait.
BassGeek congrats man!, given your location have you ever tryed fishing fish pond lake near jenkins ky?
@@stephenbrock7252 I have not but I've had it come up a lot lately. I need to make that trip.
Its a tough clear lake but if you’re patient theres a lot of double digit fish in there.
Nice video thinking of doing that to my Jon boat. Titles are not important you do you and we will watch and learn a few things along the way.
Oh yeah man. I'm just a joe.
got a sub here brother! Loving the content

Be sure to get the bed liner and it works better with the roll on not the spray. That's what a buddy told me.

Don't have a small boat. But might try this on my big boat🤷🏻♂️..
That's were I got the idea. A buddy did this on his bass boat and loves it.
I'll be your first customer, come to a Indiana and show me how to offshore fish.
How did yours hold up because mine didn't...
I'm pretty rough on mine so I have to patch every season.
Thought bout using flex seal spray on my beater kayak. Truck sounds nice btw haha #vaboys #lakeFstruggle
Thanks and give the truck bed liner a try.
Dud that to that lil boat of mine it didn't last to long but put more on it

Well it's been a year. How well has it held up and did you switch to the roll on bed liner?
It's actually held up very well. I will have to recoat a few spots that I've been tough on but I like it.

How she holding up still.?
Really good
Love me a big pal with cheese
Oh yeah.
Slip to 7:38 if you came to see the boat being rhino lining.
Well sorry for the delay
Wow. I’m first at something
You're always firs man. lol

hahaha #geeknaiton Nice!
Is this a video on how to protect a keel or a BS session?? Seriously, I don’t want to listen to all the crap... get to the point.
