: I'm cruising along on my Yost FAP-15 folder. The basic frame is done and
: tonight I hope to complete the coaming. I've been a very good boy and done
: things by the book so far - following Captain Yost and his first mate
: Paul's directions carefully. Now my deviant nature is about to reassert
: itself. Yost uses 8 oz. Polyester/Hypalon or Neoprene for the skin, and
: I'll be using 8 oz. Nylon (Dyson was out of the poly) and the elastomeric
: roof coating.
: My question: How many coats of the stuff should I plan for?
2-3?
Hopefully Mike will chime in as he's coated several yaks with elastomeric roof coating.
We found 40 lbs. of scrap 3/4" Al tubing at the scrap yard today. Woo hoo!!!! It had been an old Ham radio aerial. So far, we'll only end up buying fabric and coating.
: (Working hard to be ready for a planned trip ~10 days away!)
Where are you going?
I need to get rolling on mine to take to Mexico in February.
