Ken, I have no info on the Krylon paint, but I'd like to add a comment on your proposed prep. For some of the raised areas that you would normally sand, you might try a sharp cabinet scraper. This is used in wood working all the time and leaves the surface smoother than most sanding (at least the coarser grits). See any wodworking text for the technique. Good luck, Bill Leonhardt *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
