Any helpful hints for the rolling and tipping? We are doing the same but our work seems to be coming out with a little more brush marks. We are using Interlux Epoxy Primkote (with brushing thinner added).

Of course that is just the primer so maybe once we get the top coat of Interlux Perfection on there it will look similar to your work.

Started on the non-skid yesterday. This new product is very easy to use. We took some pictures and some video for a future tutorial.

Here are some pictures

Hi Shine,

Fantastic looking job on that Aquasport. Is that Kiwi Grip you're using on the deck?

Cheers -Steve

more progress. All the kiwigrip non-skid is on. It took longer to take the tape off then it did to apply all the non-skid :) Im happy with the way it looks, the contrast between the sterling paint and the cream non-skid looks really sharp. The paint is Materhorn white, an off white with a little gray/blue in it. The nonskid brings out the blue.

Today we begin with all the "bling", stainless hardware and hatches :D
