I have yet to come up with the best solution for minimizing snagging of the sheet on the engine.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Bill.William Serjeanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18419676353659137355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882921.post-41855030602891203782014-03-10T17:09:31.151+00:002014-03-10T17:09:31.151+00:00Now you ARE making me feel guilty. Well, only for ...Now you ARE making me feel guilty. Well, only for a few seconds! I will catch up on painting, some day.<br /><br />I agree with what you say about Dulux. It really does flow nicely. BUT in recent years not only are water-based Acrylics and Enamels cheaper, easer to clean brushes and splashes with soapy water but they dry much faster and in far less time are no longer sticky. Also work well win a mini-roller rather than a brush!<br /><br />For my model boats I use households paints, after all none of them or moored on the water! I used Rustoleum "Painters Touch" White Gloss finish on my latest PUFFIN model. It's water bases and was absolutely dry in 40 mins (indoors). I gave PUFFIN 2 primer/undercoats and three gross coats in one day . <br /><br />I guess you are thinking about launching Minnow and planning on where you two are going?<br /><br />SteveSteve Careyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06062014204863054047noreply@blogger.com
