Got Kiwigrip on the deck yesterday, mostly.
In Response To: Wednesday is PHOTO DAY! ()

Still got more to do later in the week. Wanted to wait for these sections to dry before doing some cockpit and side deck ones.

Even after doing a small test panel, I played with how much to apply to get the best roll out. We brushed/splashed it on and used a WEST system serrated trowel at the second from the bottom size. Seemed to work best. The smallest notches was not enough, anything bigger was too much. But really, it all pretty much depended on how thick you want it on the deck. I used the 'loopy goopy' roller sold for Kiwigrip and it worked great. I bought four but found one is doing the job with cleaning at rest periods.

I like the testure and feel but have not really tested it yet as it was only dry to the touch and viewing yesterday. 12 hour dry time at 50*F which oddly enough is what's it's been during the days here lately.
