As a fiberglass professional, just a word of advice. Make sure you seal all the glass that you sanded in the end if you have not glassed to it.
Fibreglass semi-pro here. When you laminate it, there is an outer layer of waterproof epoxy (or polyester). When you sand it, the bare fibreglass get's exposed and could suck up moisture.
Not sure if that is what Roger meant though.
Fibreglass ends will wick moisture, just mix up some resin and do a resin “wipe over everything and it will seal it up. Peace of mind is priceless 😎
@@charonstyxferryman It is to seal in the glass fibers that are exposed. Glass fibers can absorb moisture swell leading to delimitation. All they need to do is apply resin over the exposed fibers. If using polyester of vinyl ester resin the seal coat should have a wax additive. Can also use a gel-coat with wax
@@My_Fair_Lady you definitely can't spell
@@madebi85 This person is obviously a jerk, but I see no misspellings or conjugation errors in their comment. The contractions are both correct(people have a problem with "you're" vs "your", but he/she got that right). The words are correct. And the punctuation is correct. In fact, YOU are the one with a major issue. Have you never heard of capitalization or punctuation? It definitely makes you look silly.
The vacuum thing was hilarious
Wow those nylon brushes work so well... And you're doing a awesome job removing all the crud and glue, which will make doing all the fiberglass work much easier and more effective.... So thanks for the great tip using the nylon bristle grinding wheels ...
The cup-shaped brush is used at an angle, not straight on, so it always rests on the surface to be cleaned in a single point, exerting torque in only one direction, so the drill is controlled as well as with the cup-shaped brush disk.
Once again your DIY adventures are insanely helpful. Thank's guys for showing us the fails and the wins!

LOVE THE RG SHOW!!!
You two make boat projects look too easy. I know from experience just how much work you are actually doing, but on camera you almost make it look fun. Thanks for sharing!
Work is fun. Both the act of work and the satisfaction that the work you have done has produced a result. Work is easy.
You just aren't doing work right.
@@rorychivers8769 I have some "Fun" that needs to be done, if you're volunteering! ;)
@@schtoopid Only if the contract involves me coming over there and telling you how to make it fun so you can enjoy doing it yourself, that is the only service I offer to people
Thank you so much for your video
I was sad to see you two ripping out all your hard work, BUT I am excited to see what is to come!
Ventilation is very important in a confined space like that, especially with that much dust. A fan set up to pull air out through an open hatch would work wonders. When ventilating a confined space, always pull air out do not blow air in. Sucking more effective in exchanging the air than pushing air in is.
There are CSD (Clean and Strip Discs) Discs for the angle grinder. They are also made from nylon, also only remove the paint and won't damage the fiberglass. They do last a relatively long time. I think this is the product you've been looking for 😉 We've used them to strip a large amount of paint and also rust from our 82ft steel hull. But they do also work on fiberglass. All the best from Flying Coney ⛵
If you havent used roloc system yet I suggest giving it a go especially for the tight spots
We have a CSD, it's too abrasive.
How about 3M Bristle Discs? Abrasives embedded in the nylon bristles so that new abrasive is uncovered as it wears. Can get several different grit ratings and designed to fit on your angle grinder.
@@ohforfucksake365 yeah that's my go to 3m roloc disc they make such a large variety it's as versatile as a dremel only larger
@@SailingUma
Which of these solutions, if any would work best to strip old antifouling?
We want to remove "everything" to apply a two-part Epoxy sealer and a copper based antifouling.
How many layers down would we need to go?
@SailingUma used nylon cleaning disks. What grit did you use?
@FlyingConey suggested CSDs (Clean and Strip Disks). (were too rough?)
And @ninehundreddollarluxuryyac9598 suggested a Surface Conditioning Tool.
We don't want to swallow the cost of sandblasting, but hope to avoid sanding for weeks on end.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Laura! 🎉 veel plezier in de bvi's!
I looooooove DIY-solutions, especially when they turn into sth completely different then intended🤣😜🤣
Progress is good and you guys are enjoying this every step of the way. And your relationship is truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing ❤.
Omg with all the Duct tape I thought I was watching Red Green lol. Love what you guys are doing Cheers 🍻 and thanks for the adventures and entertainment
The high pitch side effect sounds was surprisingly funny! It made me remember a toy from the 70s, a pipe of the same type but with a slightly larger diameter, 60 mm maybe and a length about a meter. You spunn it around and it made a sound a bit like a Didgeridoo, the frequency varied from how fast you spunn it. Maybe not the most fun toy but it was a thing at one time.
Length of garden hose works too 👍.
Fantastic !!! ❤
Interesting Hardware Store find. Thanks for the info.
In 80s we had toy where you held a pipe like that. You held one end and spun it round. By veering the speed it changed the note 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 had great fun . Simpler times 🤗
Just bought a boat, which needs 'redecorating' below (old, light, racing stuff - converting to more comforable cruising). This is a frightening but valuable foretaste of what's to come!
I'll see you in the BVIs! I'm booked on with Brady and Blue, but looking forward to meeting and hanging out with everyone. See you then!
You needed a Makita TUCK POINT GUARD and Dust Extractor.. that combination is perfect NO DUST solution. The Guard cover has depth adjustability
Supper impressed with your ingenuity in creating a tool that does the job!
You two are TOTALLY DIVINE, darlings! I love you both to bits!
Good info! Saved us money and time knowing how they all worked! 🎉 I'm excited to see how your boat turns out! ❤
I really like the way you explain things and show your process. It's just the right amount of info, humor, and demonstration.
Great idea Dan & Kika keep up the great work you Two !!!!
Thank you
Critical thinking to the max!
You people are my heroes love you
There's a power tool called "the restorer". It's basically a handheld drum sander with all sort of different drums. Wire wheel, sandpaper, etc. Worth it's weight in gold.
The "nitty gritty" You're smashing it guys, keep pushing through 👍👏👏👏
Nice grinding tip! For tough to reach places the diy water bottle sandblaster on youtube works great.
Those tubes are used for musical instruments!! But normally the longer the tube, the lower the note. I guess the high note was due to the velocity of the air!!!!
Great explanation of your magic tools! Keep going, well done! Ciao
Awesome... I'm doing my very first ever sailing trip for a week in the BVI's this November 😃 and I can not wait !
Wow impressive! Just heard you were in Enkhuizen (we were there yesterday) lots of happiness and success with this challenge.
🎉keep on🎉
Yeah, our hi-powered doggie blow dryer does the same thing with the sound. It’s the corrugation. They make “bull-roarers” for calling elk out of that hose. You just twirl it and it sings. Crazy.
Well all the best in your projects ❤
thanks for sharing you are getting through jobs really quickly
The tool you wanted is the Eastwood Contour SCT Surface Conditioning Tool. It uses soft drums or abrasive drum shaped brushes like your grinder abrasive brushes but made for this kind of work and cuts a 4 inch swath. There are tons of different drums for it including your brush type, the thick scotch brite spongy stuff ones and even buffing ones with soft fabric or something that buffs to a glossy shine.
Looks IDEAL! But also kinda a "one trick pony". If we could rent one, we'd be all for it.
@@SailingUma maybe the manufacturer would like to loan you one to test 😉.
so cool. 😎
There's always removal and cleanup days. It's neat how you improvise a lot. What would boat life be without fiberglass. Thanks Dan and Kika and look forward to your next❤
That shreaky hose whistle is caused from that convoluted hose you are using. I mounted a 39 dollar shop vac in my engine room and plumbed it using that same kind of hose up to a fitting I made that the hose that comes with the shop vacuum can be inserted and use this system as and like a central vacuum cleaning system. I never have dig out the shop vacuum anymore, just the hose and fitting and clean up more easily. I ended up changing the convoluted hose between vacuum and bulkhead fitting with a smooth bore hose and that shreaking sound went away. It's a pretty cool and inexpensive way to add a central vacuum system onto your boat. I used a normal light switch mounted up in the galley to turn it on.
Ingenuity. Where there is a will (and experience) there is a way.
Well Improvised!
👏👏👏
well done, it getting along!
@Sailing Uma impressive!
I have used light dimmers as speed controls for motors with brushes. Worked fine on my one speed Dremmel and might be ok on your Makita depending on the amperage. Dimmers made for ceiling fans are a candidate.
Man, your are into it now. Happy grinding.
Lord I've been awaiting for this episode❤ thanks
Very helpful info on how to clean stuff off the hull. I've been looking at our hull and wondering how to do the job. Paint and contact adhesive been a real challenge for me. Thank you.
What a horrendous job! This is when you ‘pay the piper’ for the good times that you have when sailing.
OMG! Two of my favorite channels at the same event - Sailing Uma & Erik Aanderaa! That's a winning combination right there - no bullshit more sailing 🤣!
Sounds like fun times at the BVI Odyssey Sailing Festival!
It's the BVI's on giant catamarans. Probably all BS, very little sailing ;) A full week of bikini snorkel diving ;)
@@SailingUma - Really? I was thinking it was going to be like a sailing/training "course" where you teach us all of your secrets to sailing! 😭😭😭😭Just fun, little sailing....JFLS - lol!
Haul away adventures, enjoy!
Looks like a lot of messy work but if it was my sailboat I would feel better just knowing that it was done right from the inside out like you are doing. Can't wait to see how both of you decide to design the new interior! And I thought your first interior design was a well thought out layout also.
I did similar work on my boat. Get a box fan and tape an HVAC filter to it. Set it right next to where you’re grinding. Also use coarse sandpaper instead of grinding type tools. You end up with a coarser particulate that’s harder to get airborne. It’s slower work though. Like all things on a boat…trade offs.
Oh man, that vacuum acoustic disaster was the best laugh I've had in a long time. I needed that.
You’re half-way to a burnishing drum with your adapted brush wheels. Same sort of thing, but a cylinder 4 inches long. You can get them for mounting in a drill, but for our project of stripping a log house for refinishing, we picked up a couple of purpose built tools, basically a grinder with an extra handle, and a quick-change arbor you can change the drum on quickly. Available with bristles, sand-paper drums, or a combo sandpaper/scotch-brite flapwheel combo, which is great for curved and softer surfaces.
Metabo makes a kit, Craftsman makes one that’s kind of a single-drum belt sander, or vervor sells an economical one.
Only time I sailed in to British Virgin Islands was on a tall ship. BVI was a great place.
Eastwood Contour SCT, surface grinding tool. The tool uses a 5" wide fiber wheel drum. I enjoy your technical videos the best. God Bless Y'all.
Love you both. You've been an enormous inspiration to me. I am working on a similar life, I would love to come there and hold the camera for you. Uhhhh ... the musical pipe you created. I think it is because of the corrugations in the pipe you used. The vacuum pulling air over them is probably producing that sound. A flat pipe would probably be silent.
Those nylon discs are for fragile surfaces, i used some of them to clean the wooden beam in my house, the metal ones are too hard and damage the wood or, in your case the fiber glass.
More time lapses plz. It's so satisfying to watch.
That was the most riveting 10 minutes of scraping paint off a hull I have ever experienced. 10/10 would fully recommend! Makes me want to get a boat... 🤣
As Madd from saillife coined " Glorious , glorious sanding " . Tough job kids !
Great
That’s a sure orca deterrent!! Looks like your rocking the grinders.
Yeah, those wire wheels, the steel and brass, are mainly for removing corrosion off of various metals. Nice work adapting those nylon wheels to your angle grinder. When you mount them in the drill, you don't use them like an orbital sander. You make contact with the edge of it, with the rotation of the edge heading toward you so that it pulls away from you. You'll be able to control it best that way.
Hey Dan. I think if you use a disk brush with a full head of bristles verse just the perimeter it will alleviate the drill wondering issue. Can’t explain the physics, but it works for me.
As the old saying goes…necessity is the mother of invention,and you certainly have some very creative ideas.Cheers,Roly🇬🇧
Could the hull be dry ice blasted? Idk
👍👍
Great show guys! I am doing the same with a C&C 24 built 1975. On this boat for structural reinforcement , there is only two longitudinal reinforcement 6inchx1/2inch x7ft both sides of bilge. For chain plates abutments are only affixed just below deck level; there is no transverse reinforcement down to bilge. There is no transverse reinforcement on this boat. Your show is Invaluable!!!!
When you hooked up Satan's flute (the vacuum from hell) my dog absolutely freaked the F out. 😂😂
Would absolutely love to do the BVI trip on the boat you are running!.. but its a bit out of my reach... but a trip like that is still on my bucket list! (swim up to Soggy Dollar Bar with a soggy dollar in my pocket sounds fun)
Exciting news about the cat! Maybe a foreshadowing of a future vessel??? You guys are fearless in your Pearson upgrades… very admirable and inspiring for us to “be not afraid!” of projects on our boats👌can’t wait to see the new interior!
Flapper flat sanding discs work well for angle grinder work well
Dry ice blasting !!!!!😁😁😁
There are black nylon grinding discs for angle grinders available of the shelf, no need to modify one for the drill. But I am glad that it worked for you. :)
I fitted some of that stuff as a breather pipe on my motorcycle, for about 10 seconds !!!
Glad to see work progressing!! Nasty dusty dirty jobs those are. Rebuilding is much more fun
Laura Decker and Captain Brady in the B.V.I .. . . . ..
i remember swinging those things over my head like a hellicopter as a kid and it making that sound..maybe not as loud as the vacum makes it but yeah :)
Uma lookin clean.
very interesting for use people who have to grind
Dastool Angle Grinder Dust Collection Attachment,Cutting Dust shroud 4-1/2 inch to 5 inch Dt1706 ;o) this is what we have for drydock.
Flap sanding disks on your grinders without the guard and low grits or different grits depending what material and what depth you are trying to strip or smooth . Plus you can strap a vacuum hose to the grinder to suck up most of the dust .
That works great for when you're actually trying to remove glass or smooth something out. We're not trying to take any glass off, just the paint and glue.
Dry ice blast it would work great. The grinder has to high of an RPM for the disk you have. smooth hose not ridded.
Grinding disc's -Flap Discs for sanding .
24 Grit , silicone carbide discs for shaping or going deep on surfaces.,filing or trimming wood /plasic
As a builder they're both game changers

Very useful information, I am still finishing the refit of my 1980 Mariner 36, and your "new" tool is perfect for needing to get thru newly painted fiberglass to attach parts that need to be epoxie on to the hull...great idea, as these areas to be cleaned are small...not like your whole hull...thanks Dan and Kika
👍🏼👍🏼
Solving engineering challenges brilliantly as always. Here’s a cheat option you probably already considered and threw out… you can get 90 degree converters for some drills - uses a bit more energy in the gears, makes a little more noise… but now you can hold the drill real good.
Anyways, keep whistling! (No, not you, vacuum hose!!)
We actually did buy one first, thinking that would work, But the grinder is just SOOO much better.
@@SailingUma See? I knew it :)
All the best wishes for keeping your breath ways clear and all the best for Uma!
What a grind this Step was! My head is spinning, as was your tool!
Love Dan’s mid-video hair cut 😊
This is why you don't throw out the handles for tools. Tiger Paws for grinders are great too.
did you look at 3m radial bristle brushes? I use them, last forever and very safe and effective. Looks like an adaption could be made for your angle grinder.
So much dust!
eastwood makes their own style grinder and wheel, have all kinds of body working tools, maybe for next project, their wheel is quite a bit wider.
