Hey if I wanna paint the whole jet ski do I have to sand down the whole jet ski or just sand in the areas I use the icing in? Please let me know!
@HitchinMitch 2 жыл бұрын
You will have to sand everything you want to paint so the new paint can adhere to it properly.

Hey! One more thing, when I use 80 grit sand paper do I need to use it on the whole jet ski or can I just do the areas that are scratched or messed up?

two questions,, did you roll and tip? and did you thin the paint at all? im using the exact same paint in royal blue and i really like how yours turned out..good job man
@HitchinMitch 4 жыл бұрын
Didn't thin it at all, and I did roll it. The biggest thing was wet sanding it and buffing it afterwards to really get it perfect.

Do you buy these skis at auction and then do a flip on them or you just doing for personal use?
@HitchinMitch 4 жыл бұрын
I but them from private sellers. Then I'll ride them until I want to get another project.

Hey great video, if you can give us a link for the parts like the icing or the paint that would be great.

do you think the paint you used can be used for the same exact ski but on the bottom?
@HitchinMitch 3 жыл бұрын
They actually make the same paint specific for the bottom hull.

heya just watched your video and i'm also going to repaint my jetski. What grain size sand paper did you use at start to remove the original paint work? did you the same grain size to smooth out the pinholes when you patched them out? ps: great job
@HitchinMitch 4 жыл бұрын
The initial sanding I believe I started with 80grot to knock everything down. Everything after that was 400-2000 grit 👍

I'm looking to possibly sand and paint a 95 Sea Doo SPI. Do you have any advice on how to sand the ski and what type of paint to use. I like hi gloss. I want to paint it Nardo grey
@timothysmith1307 3 жыл бұрын
Or should I get the thing wrapped possibly
@HitchinMitch 3 жыл бұрын
I would just be cautious of what paint you use. Being a jetski it'll most likely scratch fairly easily. I would try and good a good thicker clear coat or actual marine paint your ski.

Does that ski have a gel coat ?
@HitchinMitch 4 жыл бұрын
I believe Yamaha skis are painted, I had purchased already painted at one point. So I might have had gel coat at one point in its life.

how do you know when you need a fiberglass fix or putty fix?!
@HitchinMitch 4 жыл бұрын
I would do putty fix if it's only paint damage, but if it's torn through deep enough where fiberglass has been broken that's when I would look at using fiberglass and resin to fix it.
