We used Pettit Z-spar Flagship Varnish to finish our boats. We rolled the varnish on with the same type of rollers we used to roll on the epoxy and went over that with a foam tipped brush.
Three coats on the hull and then 3 coats on the deck.
It didn't get perfectly even, I did two coats back to back without sanding in between. Then I lightly sanded with the green side of a sponge before adding the last coat.
It didn't get as even as I would have liked, I could have probably sanded and done some more coats of varnish, but I am pretty happy with the way it is.
It is just beautiful and I really like the black line! Good job, good work!
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you both and you will have so much fun kayaking in the boats you made your very own selves! Nice going!!
