Hey all...
got my 1952 Alumacraft all wire brushed down the seam, transom, and some seepy rivets that need a little TLC.
I am a little sketchy on the ratio of mixing.
Obviously a 1:1 if I did the entire application.
Which leads me to believe, I could break the application out into equal thirds?
I was thinking half at a time, but, am thinking I need to do 3 phases...
Phase 1: Boat tilted at a 30 degree angle to get the centerline seam so that GluvIT penetrates well and gets into the seam nice and good.
Phase 2: Elevate the bow and hit the transom so that GluvIT just doesnt drip down and end up in a pool at the bottom.
Phase 3: Keep flat and even and hit the rivets along the midships stringers and a few up towards the bow.
Could I, in theory, separate GluvIT into 3 applications by just splitting each the resin and catalyst into thirds??
