Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Matt and Jessica apply Awlgrip high-build primer to the V-berth and Bulkhead 5 of their boat after experiencing supply shortages with their preferred TotalBoat product.1:23 They prepare the surfaces by vacuuming and wiping them with TotalBoat de-wax surface prep.0:47 Matt mixes the Awlgrip primer at a 1:1 ratio, thinning it by 20% with reducer.2:37 During the application, the spray gun performs inconsistently, resulting in a rougher finish than previously achieved with TotalBoat.8:16 Guest Colby assists with gun calibration, but the texture remains uneven.7:39 After letting the primer cure, Matt uses a DA sander with 80-grit paper to fair the surfaces, noting that the Awlgrip primer is significantly harder to sand than the TotalBoat product.8:44 He identifies low spots, fills them with TotalBoat TotalFair epoxy fairing compound, and prepares for a second coat of primer.15:28 The process confirms that switching to an epoxy-based primer requires using compatible epoxy-based fairing compounds to ensure proper adhesion.15:11
