[QUOTE="lvhish486, post: 423405, member: 21455"] I'm preparing to apply Gluv-it to the interior of my hull and I already sanded the ribs and rivets with a wire brush. My plan was to just use a shop-vac to get all the sanding debris and dirt out of the hull and then wipe it down with Acetone where I'll be applying the Gluv-it. My question is should I vacuum it AND THEN power wash it? I'm not worried about the rivets as I have them accessible to clean thoroughly, my concern is that that shop-vac may not get all the sanding debris and dirt that's UNDER the ribs (then again it's not a certainty that a power wash will either). Can I get away with just sanding and wiping down the area with Acetone without power washing it? Any help would be appreciated. This is the last thing I need to do before I begin my restoration and thread. [/QUOTE]
