Still sanding

Two hours of work today. Sanding.


The two akas are now ready for painting.

A question for our followers: we are using Boero Altura TC mono-component polyurethane enamel with the specified thinner at the specified ratio (about 5%). The surfaces have been sanded, washed, cleaned and dried accurately, and we used a foam roller. The problem that we have is that, after two weeks, the painted surface could still be dented with a nail, either using a primer (the one specified for this enamel) or not. The only reason I could imagine is that we were anxious to start painting and we did so when the temperature was probably too low. Could this explain the slow reticulation?

Total work to date: 690 hours
