I wanted to finish off the deck's nonskid application tonight in order to continue with installation of the foredeck mushroom vent, new Spartan Marine deadlights, and the coaming boards - BIG final additions to the reassembly of Joule!
So, I grabbed a change of clothes, a Scotch Brite pad, the shop vac, and solvent...headed over to Joule and got to work. I scuffed the surface with the Scotch Brite pad, and then vacuumed the sanding debris from the decks. I then wiped the surfaces down with solvent to remove the remaining contaminates.
Back in the shop, I prepared the painting tools and poured a few ounces of the nonskid paint in a tray. I worked my way around Joule from the starboard decks to the port decks, which completed the task of painting nonskid on the side and foredecks.
