商品簡介
Clegg, whose technical specialty is paint and whose journalistic specialty is yachting, sticks closely to the realities of boat ownership as he describes how paints and coatings work with surfaces to protect your boat. He shows the many possible surfaces of boats, including cast iron keels and all manners of woods, the even more numerous choices of finishes, and the best possible ways of getting them together. He gives owners/painters a fighting chance by describing, in detail, the purposes and qualities of paint, surface preparation, paint removing methods, coating specifications, product application, color matching, doing onboard and preventative maintenance, using antifouling products and methods, paying attention to temperature and relative humidity, choosing equipment, and protecting health and safety. He includes a troubleshooting guide and glossary. Annotation c2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
