Yes, what did you use to extend them? The clean pop of that white you can't beat.

Polyisocyanates are a mean way to die.....Nice work and an air supplied resp. is a good idea.

Another nice sled Doug!
Glad to hear someone else still uses Imron. I mentioned it somewhere and was told it was outdated technology and there were much better boat finishes....
Maybe there are, but better the devil you know....you know?OK, I got down off the porch and ran with the big dogs....kinda sore now....think I'll just lay here in the flowerbed for a while...

I see stuff I painted with Imron 15-20 yrs ago that still look real good. Might have been the best paint ever. Never needs wax and wont fade or dry out...

Stupid question, slightly off subject, can you use a fine nap roller to apply gelcoat??? Seems everybody still has to wet sand and buff it up anyway?? Too cheap to buy a gelcoat gun and just wondering?

My 83 Bronco in the background was painted with Imron in 1989! I have used it off-road in Me. and towed about 125000 mi with it while photoing shipwrecks in my first life. Proof to me that the stuff holds up!
