03-09-11: Sanding and priming the inside

Today I started sanding the inside of the deck and hull. I tried all the powertool sanders i have but none was able to sand in the concave shape on the inside. So I started sanding manually by hand. After ½ hour I had had enough. I took the deck outside and sanded it with my angle grinder with a  flap disc. The hull had the same treatment. I takes a very gentle touch and it is not easy to make the surface even.

After sanding with the grinder I sanded again with a sanding block and hard work.

When priming with epoxy I this time used a foam roller. It worked well. I used 150g epoxy on the deck and  220g epoxy on the hull. I thinned down the epoxy with ethanol before rolling it out.
