Let the paint pics begin.
Starting the paint process tonight and thought I would share the experience. Try to do a step by step process of how I did it. Anyone who wants to post their fresh paint on this thread be my guest. Thanks again MMT and its members I really enjoy this site.

Re: Let the paint pics begin.
I did mine in September on a bare hull and it was easier than I thought. 90% of it was prep. What paint are you using and how are you applying it?ImageUploadedByTapatalk1360807550.682689.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1360807612.586956.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1360807620.917419.jpg

Re: Let the paint pics begin.
Isn't that awful? It needed to be repainted since it was molding. I guess due to them originally painting it with indoor paint? Called my landlord to fix it. Next day I come home to this. I keep crossing my fingers that he'll come back to repaint it and this is just a base coat with a 1yr cure time... Don't think he's coming back.
