finally....primer

well i gotta say i've been looking forward to this the whole time. i watched a fee videos on youtube about 'rolling and tipping' and felt like i was ready to give it a shot. 

thanks to BK and Sugar Bear i have the best single-stage topcoats you can get.....interlux prekote and topsides. 

so back to the rolling and tipping thing.....

you roll this stuff on in vertical strokes, a small bit at a time, then take a dry 'tipping brush' and stroke horizontally from unpainted wood back towards the paint.....this knocks down the bubbles from the roller and smooths the paint very nicely. 

i thought it went well. 

remember, this is just the first coat of PRIMER. 

ill sand her again tomorrow and put on another coat tomorrow night. hopefully after that one ill be ready for the hatteras off-white😜
