Wait ... you should have as many of these free measuring devices as I have.



the middle one is used for penetrating epoxy ... 2:1 [but a little less in 85 degrees]

the big one is used for the interdeck paint: three shooters of white, one of gray.

but gray paint is not rocket science ... no more of a problem than epoxy.

What you don't want is a gray that under 90 degees is too hot.

Here also is Vee Jay gray done last weekend on a 1978 J24 we are working on for the kids this summer. Notice the starboard white filler panels on the bulkhead ... this is interdeck 3 parts white to 1 part of their standard gray and a good match for the deck color from 1978 just a shade lighter to further reduce the long hot summer day effect.
