Re: boat painting progress (pics) update done !!!

"Fordmugg" thank you for answering my questions. Could you elaborate a bit on the "binks" spray gun in other words a shameless plug.(cost, airless?,type of compressor, where to buy in the U.S.A)I don't know if they're available in Canada.
Thanks again
Bailey

hows it going....... the pic below is the kind of binks gun i used .....there are some online stores you can buy one from ...and you can try ebay.....i barrowed mine from my uncle who had it, so i didnt have to buy one...you can control the air and paint volume on them .....i used my 30 gallon craftman compressor for the air

Very nice job looks really good ! Paint that trailer white or blue and it would really look sharp.

WOW:eek:
What a paint job. You should consider taking on a part time (or full time) job painting boats. It would have to pay out the you know where:D
Congrats on a cool boat!

I like it a lot. You live in cali? If we ever get our restore done and I see you at Havasu or the river I will now know what your boat looks like! No offense you won't ever catch me at silverwood lake haha. Closest I ever get to silverwood lake is up Cleghorn.

I really dig that boat tho, good scheme.

with the 115 hp merc and a 4 blade 17 pich it would do 41mph ...i just changed props to a 3 blade 19 pitch ....had it out at the river but never gps it ....but it does scoot along a little quicker maybe mid 40's now
