Hello Greg
once upon a time I did not bother with varnishing or lacquering the finished boat. Then I joined a model boat club and discovered that collisions with other boats were quite frequent. When the paint finish was damaged it required major touching up and refinishing, all of which was very time consuming and annoying. After the first couple of incidents I discovered the value of applying varnish or lacquer. There was a far higher chance that only this layer would be damaged and not the paint finish, so making good was much quicker and easier. ๐ ▲

Humphrey is coming along very nicely firefighter. After you have painted hull and superstructure will you be giving them a finishing coat or three of varnish or lacquer ?๐

Hi Greg what sort of paint are you using?
I'm still an advocate of cellulose, (a left over from spaying kit cars) ▲
