O34 Hull Paint Progress

This last week saw some good progress. The painting is definitely a two person job, and both have to know how to mix and apply the catalyzed paint. The stuff is really fussy about thinning, temperature, and etc. One person keeps running the 'gun' and the other mixes the paint components and manages the hose. Both are suited up with pressure respirators.
This is no place for beginners... !

The hull has several coats on it and the waterline and cove stripes are done. Final smoothing is going on now and I am unsure if more color coats are planned before the clear coating gets sprayed. I believe that there will be several clear coats.
