So The Morgan Giles 30 was orange, then it was grey and now it is black, What is the world coming too?

It has now come to the stage in the refit to think about doing the hull re-painting. It can be seen that the Morgan Giles 30 was once an orange hulled boat, Which it is going to be again, however, it had to go through a transformation first. 


First we had to paint several coats of Hi-Build epoxy primer to the hull after we removed the old paint system off the hull and did any necessary repairs and modifications to the hull during its long refit.  


So it has come to the time when after the coats of Hi-Build epoxy primer have come to an end and it is now time to flat back the epoxy primer back to a smooth finish ready to start the repainting back, you guest it back to orange again. however, it is a different shade of orange this time 


The ghost coat of black paint as been sprayed all over the hull which now as to cured before we sand the hull down back to a smooth grey colour before coating it with its first coat of orange


So there is going to be a few hours of sanding the hull ahead for us over the coming days before we are ready for the first coat of orange.



So let the fun begin
