I see roving! 8 years 10 months ago #117378

61mysteryboay Offline Fresh Boarder Posts: 9 Thank you received: 0	I am restoring a 1960s fiberglass boat. I can see the woven roven through the gelcoat. How do I go about concealing it? I will be refairing and painting the whole boat. Not concerned about the amount of work. I just want it to look good when completed. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

IF you have only a few problems, you could try an overlay of epoxy "whipped cream" applied, allowed to cure, faired down & then recoated before refinishing. just my OPINION, satx Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

If you can feel it, sand and re-gelcoat, sand to about 600 grit wet or dry and then paint. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.
