Re: Stus-List Cabin heat

2015-11-18 Thread Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List
We had a ‘heat pail” that burned ethanol or methanol years ago. It did get hot, 
but burning hydrocarbons or alcohols inside a boat produces a ton of water 
vapor which will condense all over the boat and you will end up warm and damp 
and then cold and damp when you turn the thing off.

I have 3 different kinds of antifouling paint (Micron 66, Micron CSC and 
another ablative with 43% copper ) ..approx. a litre or quart of each.

Would it be alright to dump all of it into one one gallon can and mix it 
all together.   I realize they might have different individual 
effectiveness but do I really care if I don't have to buy a gallon of paint in 
the Spring.

Stus-List Antifouling Paint

2015-11-18 Thread robert via CnC-List

Mike:

I am not so sure I would trust them. years ago, I bought a Kirby 25 
with VC 17...I wanted to put Micron CSC on the bottom but I did not 
want to remove the VC17...I will never remove antifouling paint again.


I asked Interlux tech support if I could put the CSC over the VC 
17."absolutely not was Interlux's answer.the CSC will simply 
peel off and provide no antifouling protection.you must remove the 
VC 17".


I gave it a wet sanding with 320 grit paper and applied the Micron CSC 
over it..absolutely no problem for the 7 years we raced the boat.  
John Roy and Paul Gallant remarked how nice the bottom of the Kirby 
was..John even felt the bottom had been 'long sanded' at some point 
before I bought the boat.


I painted the entire inside of the Kirby with Brightside..Interlux 
told me it would peel if I didn't prime first..no primer and one 
part Brightside worked finenever peeled.


Maybe I just answered my own question..what possible harm could it do!

Re: Stus-List Antifouling Paint

Ablatives can generally be applied over hard paints.  I have contacted Interlux 
support many times and have always been given this answer.  Most recently I 
enquired if I could apply Micron 66 over Petit Vivid and was told that I could 
after a light sanding of the Vivid.  Results were good as I expected.  I have 
alos applied Ablatives over VC 17 and Micron CSC over VC Offshore.

The reverse is however not true.  No hard paints can be applied over ablatives.

The Brightsides data sheet states that it can be applied directly over gelcoat. 
 I also contacted tech support about Interdeck (same as Brightsides) and this 
was confirmed.  Over raw fiberglass or epoxy it is recommended a primer be 
used.  Such as when recoring a section of deck.

I love Brightsides.  Very easy to use, nice looking and relatively cheap.

I had some barnacles on my hull this year.on the advice of a C&C 
lister, I used muriatic acid..diluted the acid (approx. 33% from the 
retailer) 1 part acid to 5 parts water (down to say 6%).put in a 
spray bottle and it pretty much dissolved the barnacles.  Let the acid 
stand for about 10 minutes and rinsed with a hose..no damage to the

Stus-List Antifouling Paint

2015-11-18 Thread robert via CnC-List

Mike said "Ablatives can generally be applied over hard paints."

That's the way it turned out but that was not what Interlux tech support 
advised me.  I bought the Micron CSC at the Binnacle...asked them the 
same questionthey advised to remove the VC 17.


Difference experiences at different times, I guess.

Would the inside of the Kirby have been 'gelcoat'?   It would have 
already had some kind of paint on it from the Mirage factory but it was 
pretty grungy before the paint job.

I am looking for someone to skipper The Office back from Bermuda around
June 18.

I have several qualified crew, but need to have a skipper with ocean/Great
Lakes experience.  Unfortunately, this is not a paid position and you would
have to pay for your own transportation to Bermuda and from Annapolis.

I may also have room for one or two more crew.

Please contact me off list if interested.
