  • Into fall and running out of time we attempted to paint the top side of our 1992 Sea Ray 380 SS yacht. Unfortunately we didn't get nearly as far as we would've liked. Oh well! That just means more episodes to come!

    I’d recommend looking up “roll and tip” painting. Also, those canvas snaps should just unscrew from the hull. When you put them back you may want to add a tiny bit of marine sealant.

    The 380 sun sport is a special boat. Low production. Unique seating area. 1/2 cruiser, 1/2 speedboat. This video brought a tear to my eye.

      She’s a work in progress. We didn’t get too far on the paint job. Wait for the upholstry to come in and the paint to finish. She’ll be looking good again.

    Total boat products are good.
    May want to talk to your supplier about mixing and spraying techniques.
    I had a 420 dancer "90"
    Restriped it with the Sea Ray black and gold scheme.
    I used a heat gun to remove the decals.
    Worked like a charm.
    Just keep it moving and don't let it burn the decals once you get the hang of it it will take glue and everything.
    Looking forward to your next video.z👍

    Spraying is actually pretty easy, masking is the toughest part. There are a few really good tutorials on youtube as well. Since you plan on selling this, you really should sand down the top and spray it as well, at least on the parts that aren't 'nonslip' of the gelcoat.

      Going to spray the sides and roll the top. I’ve decided to keep the boat at least another year.

    Looks like you used a steel wool as a brush. A pressure pot would be the best to paint with.

    Topside should be gray NOT white - reduces glare. The only thing worse would be topside metal flake.

    Why wouldn't you just spot repair the damage and polish it?

      We tried. It was too far gone. The outside was all ate up. No gelcoat left hardly.

    Love the videos. Questiion: Why did you tape off the hardware instead of just removing it all? Not second guessing you - I'm asking out of ignorance.

    • @BoatRestorationbyBen
      @BoatRestorationbyBen  Год назад

      Out of our own ignorance and laziness. If I do it again which might be this winter to add another coat I may remove all the hardware instead

    As a bit of constructive criticism.. there's just too much talking and not enough of the actual work we're here to see. I'd suggest making a shorter version for RUclips and a longer version in a Patreon or something for the interested.

    You just ruined that boat by using a paintbrush. I can't believe you half-assed painting like that instead of using a spray gun or hiring a professional painter. SMH.

    I enjoy your channel but the repetition of what you're going to do takes up most of the time in the video, Way too much talk and little action.

    • @BoatRestorationbyBen
      @BoatRestorationbyBen  Год назад

      What do you suggest for documentation of the action? It’s just me so it’s difficult without a second hand to document the actual “how to” or action.
