The Blues






We sanded the final coat of gray primer on the hull for almost a day and a half. My skin and clothes were gray. This afternoon we put on the first colored paint, a single-part, polyurethane that costs about $25/quart. It took almost a quart to cover the hull. I rolled the paint on with a smooth, foam roller and Marjorie "tipped" with a good brush ($18) we bought from Home Depot. This is the standard way for amateurs to apply this paint and the results look good I think. I will put on at least one more coat of color.

We finished working at 6:00PM. I am eager to look at it in the daylight tomorrow morning.
