Hi
Currently I doing a lot of work on the keel which is in a bit of a mess, anti-foul is lumpy and flaking off
I have taken the body of the keel (the aluminium or steel) back to metal and on the wing section removed the flakey debris and exposed several area of metal which is some sort of lead??
Have anyone else done this
What are the metals made of
What should I prime
1/ The keel box with, Is Primacon OK or ??
2/ The wing section, I presume I will have to fill in with epoxy prior to a primer?
The Keel does take a pounding over the year hopefully others have dealt with similar problems
One of those jobs that once you start keeps on going.
Hope to see some at the AGM
