Leif. After my CB was sand blasted, belt sanded, epoxy filled and faired I gave it two coats of Interlux Primocon underwater primer before applying the anti-fouling paint. Board came out looking almost reasonable. Bill Sylvester M-17 # 279 Endelig On Oct 21, 2005, at 5:43 PM, Wudnboatlovr@aol.com wrote:
Hello to all:
I've made good progress on bringing my M-17 back, and will be launching before Christmas. I just got a look at the bottom 18" of the steel CB. It looks like it was never taken care of in any way. Severe rust. I plan to grind and fill with epoxy filler, but I need suggestions on what to coat the steel with. Coal Tar Epoxy? Red Lead? or whatever.
All of your suggestions and advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Leif Eriksson _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
