Kelp Posted March 8, 2014 #1 Posted March 8, 2014 Just wondering what is the more popular method for painting the moldings and rails on the hull. Do you usually install the moldings first and then paint them or paint the moldings first, then add them to the hull? Thanks, Don

dgbot Posted March 11, 2014 #3 Posted March 11, 2014 If you can paint before hand do it. This will make it easier for down the raod.

Kelp Posted March 22, 2014 Author #4 Posted March 22, 2014 Thanks Davids and Druxey, I have painted the moldings first before applying them to the hull. Nice results. Don
