Unfortunately, T-27.com doesn¡¯t get much use¡­.

?

If you have projects or info to share I¡¯d be happy to post it.? We have 29 members registered on T-27.com.?

?

If nobody is interested in using it I can also kill the project.? My initial goal was to create a rough framework and then wait for direction from everyone else as to what content was needed or wanted.? The old Tartan27.com was supposed to be transferred over and it appears it was abandoned and has been snapped up by some loser serving ¡°search¡± crap.

?

In other news, I¡¯m in the process of repainting my deck. My nonskid had adhesion failure in about 85% of the deck.? Looks like the culprit comes back to primer failure as the non-skid is on top of some paint on top of some paint on top of some primer (that isn¡¯t a typo).

?

Process wise, what worked best was a 1500 or 1800 PSI electric pressure washer to knock loose whatever is going to come off easily.? Then I¡¯m coming back with a tungsten scraper and removing what didn¡¯t come up with the pressure washer.? Some of it was extremely well adhered and is a monster to get off.? After that I come back with an angle grinder and a blue sanding pad to remove old paint and in areas where the gel coat is crazed to try and get the nasty stuff out.? This will grind off some gel coat¡­.. it¡¯s crazed anyhow on my boat so no big loss.

?

Lastly I¡¯m going over it with a ? sheet sander and 80 grit to smooth it out some.? For hand sanding I¡¯m using 3M sandblaster sponges and sandpaper.

?

The plan is to put down a layer of primer and then two coats of interlux brightsides in the areas where it¡¯s just going to be paint.? I¡¯m using Kiwi-Grip on the non-skid.

?

Color scheme will be white for the paint, light grey for the kiwi-grip nonskid and the hull is currently green.? I may redo the hull dark blue, but this gives me a sharp color scheme and the boat isn¡¯t going to get any hotter in blue vs. green.? Lol.
