The cloth he sold me as untreated was coated! The whole lamination peeled off like peel ply!
Watching with interest Everysurfer, i followed the last build, a few years ago, hows that board holding up? hows the flex pattern in the board? has it lost any performance?
Well, I have another roll. Nylon 66 for sure this time. With red tracers.
I got it as a sample from Cramer fabrics.
Hope that was a joke it all peeling off. Flag material as in nylon. What weight? This is all new to me.
Sadly no joke.
That’s why you have to be careful what cloth you pick. Nylon 66 uncoated works. Other stuff clearly doesn’t!
It came off super clean, so I’m about to go again.
For the weight,. 330 denier for the deck is 5 oz.
330 denier comes from dogbooties.com
200 denier comes from https://beaconfabric.com/search?q=Nylon+66
Just make sure it is nylon 66, and uncoated
Nylon fuzzes when sanded. That’s ok. It’s soft and fluffy. The next layer will cover it, and it will lay down.
Screen Printing…SICK!
Thanks for the inspiration, In addition to surfboard logos,
I’ll be making “pro” t-shirts for my garage board brand.
So awesome.
My bagging is pretty good but seeing your taping answers my questions about what I’m missing for wrinkle free.
Bitch about the Nylon Peel Ply, but thankfully an easy mistake to recover from.
Looking good man
I’m just going to leave this hint here. When you sand nylon, it fuzzes up. It will mess with your hot coat.
How to get rid of the fuzz. Don’t burn down the house.
Pre hot coat, 8 pounds 14 oz.
So you noticed it’s 3 sections of plastic. One at a time. Start at the nose, and keep heading south!
Enjoying this while we still have power. Keep them coming. Thanks
