I had thought I'd go to 220 but the 120 is pretty slick. I think I'll see what 180 looks like before I get to CrAzY with it. Sorry for the slow response, I've only been home 15 minutes. Machine repair is on going and so far my week has not been great. I'm decompressing tonight with a couple bottles of cold Modelo Negro. If you like dark brew these are really good.

Maybe it is my Cloof memory but I thought something around 120-150 was as fine as you should go to get good adhesion. And if YOU think it is pretty slick it must be as smooth as the proverbial babies butt
Re: Eric's C21
Thanks for letting me know!
Nothing major to report. I took her outside for another bath. You can see tons of places I broke through primer while sanding it down.
In particular, if you look to the upper right of the lower strake you can see what a hard spot looks like. That the result of sanding over the frame that's underneath the hull. I thought that was interesting.
The other side.
Next step...Prime her again!

Re: Eric's C21
What are you sanding with at this point? What I mean is, how long is your board?
Looking good by the way.

I've dropped to a 12" and a 6". I hope to just use the small 6" with 180 and very lightly sand the next coat.cape_fisherman wrote: ↑Fri Jul 14, 2017 11:21 am What are you sanding with at this point? What I mean is, how long is your board?
