Thasarummun Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Morning All Have been having some great weekends aboard, SO lucky with the weather. Each weekend we think let's do some work to the boat, but then think better of it and potter along the river. Has anyone had any experience of a local company or person to do some light sanding and varnishing of internal woodwork. Zephyr is based in Richardsons Stalham WetShed, so someone local to there would be ideal Best Gavin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrundallNavy Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 The trouble with varnish the finish is only as good as the preparation and that’s what costs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the varnish bubbled up or has it just lost its gloss and needs a freshen up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do and tired, scratch and bit bare in places: ideally looking for a touch up before the full shebang :) we may try and tackle a few bits between us..

Regulo Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Never mind that nonsense, George, get on with my boat! . But congrats, if you read this. Highly recommended for standards of work, by the way (but don't expect it rushed).. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malanka Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Phils guys can do it. Simpsons. They will be doing ours at some point hopefully years in the future and we have a ton of internal mahogany as many of you know. It’s everywhere...Only two places bubbled so far the rest is pristine.
