Wes prepares the boat for launch by applying a barrier coat and buffing the hull while the vessel remains in the boat yard.0:01 The process begins by taping the waterline to ensure a clean paint edge.1:08 Before applying bottom paint, the hull is buffed to remove oxidation and prevent debris from contaminating the fresh paint. Wes uses a buffer to apply compound, noting that the amount required depends on the level of hull oxidation.1:30 For the barrier coat, he uses Interprotect 200E, mixing the two-part product manually due to the lack of a mixing drill bit.2:17 Because the hull was previously soda blasted, some old barrier coat remains, potentially reducing the number of coats needed.2:23 To address the challenge of painting beneath the boat stands, he plans to paint around each stand, allow the area to dry, and then shift the stands to finish the remaining spots.3:36
