Sailing Yabá · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

Sanding and varnishing the deck of Yabá requires removing old black caulking compound, which melts and clogs sanding discs when the deck surface heats up in the sun.1:32 To mitigate this, the crew uses a 36-grit disc on a low-speed setting to strip the compound, followed by 50-grit for smoothing.1:13 After vacuuming the dust, they fill gaps in the teak with Sikaflex polyurethane sealant.4:04 For the finish, they apply Cetol Deck varnish, thinning the first two coats to improve wood penetration.16:34 The product provides an anti-skid surface without requiring added quartz.21:26 The crew also refinishes interior wooden cupboard doors, opting for a varnish finish rather than paint to preserve the wood's natural detail.11:16 The work concludes with a final coat of varnish applied under the threat of rain, which risks affecting the uncatalyzed finish.22:08
