This year, I plan on restoring completely, my 13' Mini Hawk.
The first step is paint. As of now, the boat is all white with some greenish/blue color. I want to re do all the paint.
I think i have to take all the graphics off, which is that greenish/blue stripe. The transom is painted with that color though. And i don't even know if the rest of the hull is painted (it's white), or is it just the fiberglass?
Once all the graphics are off, i should take the black windscreen the boat has, the boat cover snap on's, the railings on each side.
The interior will be painted the same color too.
Once everything is taken off the boat (if it is paint the boat has), what material is best for sanding.
Paint: Want some sort of smooth, shiny/glossy paint. What type of paint?
Painting: Spray/Air brush it on? Paint brush it on? Without messing it up of course.
I think that's all i need for now? I'm going to be writing all the comments/suggestions from you down so when I go out to do all this, i'm all set.
Thanks!
