Filler and paint

After the doghouse removal, there was some really unfair marks left on the deck from the doghouse taking lots of paint and filler with it as it went off. I came home on Friday expecting to sand most of it out and paint, but after going through too many 120 grid pads, I decided to bring in the big guns.

I mixed up some epoxy thickened with low density fairing filler, to the suggested 'peanut butter' consistency. I applied it with an old phone card as a spatula (which worked well). Here it is all sanded 'fair' and masked for paint.



I went at it for painting on Sunday. The rain was coming and going all day, but I managed to get lucky and lay it down with a good couple hour window for it to set up.
