Re: Panga 20 Build
I think you can wet sand buff, but I would make a panel to test and not test on the hull.

Your boat looks great! My Panga 25 build is right behind yours! Following all the postings has been a great help! Thank you all!!
This is my first posting I think a photo of my project is attached if not it will follow when I figure it out!
I’m just moving from sand and fairing to prepping a prime coat.
I will also set up a thread of my project next
Thanks again for the inspiration and information

Re: Panga 20 Build
Thank you. I was wondering if anyone else was building a Panga. Please post. I couldn't open your picture. Posting has definitely helped me with a better build.Crystal Craft wrote: ↑Sun Jan 12, 2020 1:07 pm https://forums.bateau2.com/app.php/gall ... image/5997

Re: Panga 20 Build
I forgot to post this, but after posting about how great the paint looked, I woke up the next morning to see what it looked like and it had dried to a semi-gloss finish. All of my conditions were the same, but I think I forgot to stir the paint before I put the last coat on. Do you think that is what caused it. All the other coats looked like a mirror after drying. There is also one area that is a little thin where I must have not rolled over it. It only took 45 minutes to sand in between coats and 45 minutes to put a coat on, so I think I'm going to sand and put another coat on. My first reaction was to see what the humidity was, but it was around the same as it was for all of the other coats.

Re: Panga 20 Build
I had to do it. I went ahead and sanded. There were some spots that I missed with the roller and there was a bunch of lint on the first part of the boat I painted the other night. As I mentioned in last post, the gloss wasn't looking good either. If I'm going g to do it, it's going to be done right. Another layer will help in the future for buffing anyway.

Re: Panga 20 Build
It takes me about 20 hours of sanding and about 4 hours of cleaning and prep.
Tomorrow is final sanding and cleaning the hull and room. Then we tack morning of.
Best of luck.

Re: Panga 20 Build
I know it looks the same in the pics, but I think I got most of the lent out this time. I'm happy with it. Moving on to the sides.

Re: Panga 20 Build
It looks great. I had some lint or paint solids or something in my transom steps when we started. I kind of think it was some dry paint on the can edge from my panel testing yesterday.
