Acadia 51
Wednesday
Now that the interior varnish work was complete, I went ahead and unmasked all the trim and bulkheads as needed.
The new varnish had had sufficient cure time so I could move right ahead with masking off the lower settee bulkheads and after cabinets in the galley and nav station to prepare them for primer and paint.
After final preparations, I applied a coat of primer to all areas.
Later, I sanded, cleaned, and varnished (coat #4) the doors and other small parts down in the shop. I planned this to be the final gloss base coat on these parts before switching to the rubbed-effect satin varnish for the final coat.
