[QUOTE="Churak, post: 470731, member: 25211"] Past few days have been dedicated to further stripping of inner hull paint and surface refinishing. The way of arms and shoulders are feeling after today makes me want to invest in an SCT I saw in another build! :lol: Not too much in this update to actually talk about - stripped out the remaining paint with some chemical stripper, cleaned up and then went to work with some scotch brite and WD-40 for the brushed aluminum look. I really like how it came out with a satin finish and I'll do the final clean up tomorrow with a power sander. I started at the front of the boat and made my way back - you can tell where I started to get tired based on how many grinder marks are still visible. What do you guys think? Should I keep the stain/brushed finish or should I throw some paint on there. I'm not sure how it would look with everything brushed aluminum (including seats) but I'm not sure if I would do some kind of color contrast with the seats to make them pop against the brushed look of the hull.
