What kind of paint and clear are you using? Thanks , Beaux.
This is the only thing I use in a spray bomb for, seats only. Everything else is Imron aircraft paint for hull deck and side

Thank's ! Superb job !!
Today, Mask off all edges and feather in all joints with Duraglass (a marine form of Bondo) Then remove tape and sand with various size dowels to conform with all edges and smooth with 180 grit paperIM002821.jpgIM002822.jpgIM002823.jpgIM002825.jpg
The sanding and feathering in will be a full ten hrs but the end result will look like a one piece deck IM001810.jpg example photo
Where do you find the instrument panel and stuff like that?

Just incredible.
Yup! Yesterday clearcoated sides and bottom. Great day to paint , no crap in the air. Today Wet sand with 1500 wet and dry paper and then 2500 wet and dry . Then buffed with a HD buffer and heavy compound then mild . Here is the end result , Mirror finish no dust no bugs no fisheyes just perfect conditions, and yes what you see is all reflections of everything around the boatIM002848.jpgIM002849.jpg Next, Chrome gunwale and detail console. Be back soon!
Amazing work. If I had even half of your talent, I would look for a displacement hull and start making a Nordhavn 55.
