[Rhodes22-list] Lou and other trailer buyers - Sheriff of Edenton is back in town

[john Belanger]

i have seen ads for a process done at your boats location involving bicarbonate of soda blasting??? i don't know anything about it but it sounds quick and less damaging than grinding. check it out!!

Good luck with the rebuilt boat!
did you lose a diamond board or the older standard fin like I have?

I am in the process of stripping all my bottom paint and gelcoat due 
to boatpox.
Just took possession of a 3 gal air compressor yesterday from 
Harborfreight.com
and awaiting a full 3M face mask to help me grind more efficiently 
and carefully.

This is one of the toughest jobs ever. I would not recommend doing 
it unless you have the time, which of course I don't
but do have the space and the patience.

The plan is to replace the bad gelcoat with 12 layers of barrier coat 
then a hard bottom paint.
