AwlGrip vs. Gelcoat Dear Friends, last summer I scratched Vanessa's starboard side (nothing serious but cosmetically not very nice!), so I decided to give her a refresh, and overhaul all deck hardware. In a few weeks, after a veeeeeeery long winter on the shed, she will be ready to go back into the water, I really can't wait to sail her again. Here she is after new paint. I know original gelcoat is far better than AwlGrip, but at least on the deck to get a new gelcoat is too difficult to be applied (and in my shipyard there is a genius working with AwlGrip, so...!) Here she is: Fair winds matteo (47/069 Vanessa)

Bravo Matteo! But you probably should buy a stronger pair of sunglasses when you go sailing! |

So beautiful, well done Matteo! Was it done with "traditional" harder polyester urethane resin based AwlGrip or softer but more easily repairable 2000 version? Teemu (43/014 Eleanor) |
