    Been gone 20+ years...I'm back. Question--removing mold/crap from an old boat

    It could probably do with a good acid wash. That should do for any hard water deposits and other crap. If it's particularly thick, probably a good blast with a high pressure power washer too. Also, thanks a lot for the reminder the 2006 was 20 years ago.

    That PWC is a Kawasaki Chicken according to what the super found out. The owner also had a bunch of parts custom made. I also got the Tige flake sprayed today.

    I would say it's not very common. I've only seen a few of these older styles, and one other that was totally resprayed, yellow and pinkish I think. Pictures of that are long gone. I don't have any idea of the cost, I don't handle that stuff.

    Lund tyee I/O transom removal

    Ok, I get it now. I think I've done one like that a long time ago. The problem withthe rivets is you would have to have them back in before you put the transom in. How would you hold a block to the inside with the transom in the way? Plus the paint.

    Lund tyee I/O transom removal

    Can you post a picture? I'm not sure what piece you're talking about. Also, my brain kinda skipped over I/O. I read Lund and just went straight to outboard. I'll have to see the area, but still you'll be better off taking apart the interior and what I'm assuming is a casting deck than doing the...

    1981 Springbok 18' Restoration/Renovation

    Usually it's flooring first, then foam. You drill some 1 inch holes and pour through, but it looks like you've already wrapped the main flooring with vinyl.

    Lift the cap. If you go up to about the windshield, you can lift the cap enough without creasing it.

    Planted Peppermint seeds and got this??It aint Peppermint

    You can use this app to get a better idea. Since it's a store bought seed, and most likely imported, I don't think the location field will help very much. Take clear pictures of both sides of the leaves, the stem, and the berry clusters. Flowers are often some of the best means of...

    Well, I TRIED to spray the Tige today. The plan was to spray the flake, spray the blue, and clear everything together. The flake came out great, the when I was inside spraying the blue the paper fell and I couldn't see it. I got blue all over the flake. We tried to wipe it off, but it didn't...

    That's just a shop trailer for delivery. They keep it on a lift and don't even have a trailer.

    West is clearly down, so you better bust out the shovel and pick axe if you want that hot pocket.

    Flooring ok to reseal/EVA foam?

    That wood looks like it's badly delaminating to me. I would say it's time for new wood. Marine grade or exterior, but not construction grade treated wood, it reacts badly with aluminum and causes corrosion. I would also suggest sealing in a way that would leave a hard, non permeable surface if...

    So, they sent the wrong flake for the Tige, so I've been doing some smaller jobs while we wait for the next batch. I did a quick few spots on a Stingray, a patch job on a waverunner, and just sprayed another waverunner today.

    Lakesport TX17 rear deck removal

    Screwed down through the carpet most likely. The ply is either wrapped in carpet, then screwed to the frame, or screwed down first and carpeted over. Casting decks are usually the former.

    Ah, but you're forgetting that it's not just people nipples. Every mammal has nipples. So that says a lot about Joe right there.
