What this video covers

Edgar and Sâmia install 0.8mm-thick laminate sheets on interior bulkheads, a process requiring repeated trimming and fitting to accommodate the non-square geometry of the boat’s hull.8:16 The installation involves applying contact adhesive to both the laminate and the substrate, allowing a 20- to 30-minute drying time before bonding.3:25 During the process, the crew encounters a significant setback when a large laminate piece cracks, forcing them to remove the damaged section and restart the application.12:11 The team notes that while cutting the material is straightforward, the time-intensive phase involves iterative adjustments to ensure the sheets fit flush against the bulkheads and door frames.7:52 After removing the failed piece and cleaning the surface, they successfully re-apply the laminate and finish the bulkhead sections.17:14 The project highlights the fragility of thin laminate and the necessity of precise, repetitive trimming when working in irregular spaces.12:21
