Purpose: Continue Cockpit Refinishing Project -- Continue Wood Refinishing
Complement: Yoni Bresler
Weather: High 50's in the morning to mid 60's in the early afternoon

  • Lightly sanded cockpit seats and companionway trim with 400 grit. The 220 grit recommended in the Application Instructions seemed to remove too much material.
  • Removed sanding dust from cockpit seats and companionway trim using a wet rag -- NOT a tack rag.
  • Applied third coat of Awlwood clear gloss to cockpit seats and companionway trim. This coat required less material. Expect that this trend will continue as the surface becomes smoother.
  • Applied first coat of Cetol Marine Natural Light to coamings and icebox lid.
  • Next steps:
    • Apply fourth finish coat to cockpit locker seat lids and companionway trim.
    • Apply second coat to coamings and icebox lid.
    • Apply Brightside to companionway rim and ruddershaft penetration.
    • Reinstall engine controls.
