Summer Song | Saturday, January 18, 2014 I washed, then lightly sanded, the new tabbing securing the engine foundations, removing any sharp edges and lightly scuffing the surface to accept paint. |
Later, I applied a coat of gray epoxy-based primer to the new fiberglass work. This would act as a sort of tie coat between the fresh epoxy and the final coats of gray paint I'd be using throughout the engine room: most one-part paints wouldn't cure properly over green epoxy, so this step would allow me to continue paintwork--and therefore the whole engine installation--sooner than later. |
