: 2) Finished sanding the hull of my Endeavour kayak today. According to
: Kayakcraft, I should now glass the hull (outside only) and then turn it
: right side up and strip the deck. Then glass the deck exterior and move on
: to the insides. Unfortunately, the deck will probably be pretty slow going
: (too much work on the day job). How long can I give myself with the hull
: sealed only on one side ? Or maybe I should paint some temporary seal coat
: on the inside, without braking the forms out, Latex maybe ???
Hi, Pascal;
Four months went by from the time I glassed the outside of my hull, to when I glassed the inside. I had no problems, but then it was one of the hottest, driest summers on record around here, and I left most of the forms inside until I was ready to sand & scrape. You work in a pretty damp spot, don't you? I was lucky, and I'll try to find a way to reduce the separation next time. I won't be able to count on that kind of weather again.
