That's good stuff. Be careful launching your boat.

 Re: Finally done with the glide!
Yep all the sanding and rolling is a heck of a job. Especially going back and dry rolling the last section you did every time. well worth it I'm sure. Especially since the bottom of my boat had been bare aluminum for a couple of years now

 Re: Finally done with the glide!
