Equinox Project | Wednesday, January 21, 2009 I began the day by sanding the primer with 320 grit paper. Afterwards, I dusted off and solvent-wiped the hull so that I could move on with the next steps. |

With finish primer now applied all the way to the new waterline, I struck a new line to demark the top edge of the new boottop. After some consideration, I chose a 2" width for the new stripe, and, using the same methods I employed earlier, marked the new line on the hull. Afterwards, I masked along the new marks using vinyl fine-line tape, and then regular masking tape to fill in the area beneath so that the hull paint wouldn't contaminate the new boottop area. |

I continued by cleaning up the shop and rinsing down the staging, plastic drape, and floor, and then I solvent-washed the hull a final time using the Alexseal wipe-down solvent, then spent the remainder of the day's time preparing paint and spray equipment for tomorrow. |
