More paint on Das Boat. Almost done....this time.
 
Whatcha think? This was easier than spraying, but i didn't get a good buzz which sucked. One Part polyurethane topside paint mixed 12:4 ratio paint-to-thinner. This was the first coat and it laid out smooth. Can't really see any flaws in the paint itself (can see some of the rushed prep work) unless you get up close and nit-pick it. Topside was done in white and it came out smooth as glass. Still got two more very light coats of blue to go before I'll call it quits on paint and pull the painters tape.

Sanded old paint that didn't hold up well

Bring gas money. If there's three dudes, we need 4 hot chicks (I'm single) and the bikini rule goes into effect. The the slims' bikinis are too big, they take them off until they find something more appropriate....and no heffalumps.

Are we just the backup for when the same thread over on CFOT gets locked and you get banned again?

He should spill it on the yard, it would look better than what’s there now.
