Huub prepares the hull for painting by sanding the surface with 80-grit and 180-grit sandpaper to remove oxidation and old paint.0:13 He decides to raise the waterline and extend the anti-fouling paint higher up the hull to improve protection and aesthetics.0:57 To ensure a clean finish, he removes the boat's name sticker after recording its dimensions for future replacement.6:03 Because the boat sits too low at the bow while on tires, he uses a forklift to adjust the cradle, ensuring proper drainage on deck.8:51 He monitors local weather patterns, specifically a tropical wave, to avoid painting during rain, noting that overcast conditions help prevent the one-component International Toplac marine blue paint from drying too quickly.13:51 He applies three coats of anti-fouling, prioritizing extra layers at the waterline, bow, and bottom where wear is most significant.25:54 He cleans the surface with acetone before each application to ensure proper adhesion.19:49
