[QUOTE="Gawlerj, post: 374343, member: 15856"] The project is moving along. I've stripped almost all of the paint off the inside. While reading that as long as the paint is still adhering to the hull, applying a self etching primer to it will work too, prior to applying the new paint. Thoughts on this? May same some work on the outside of the hull. My main question is how to best go about replacing the foam without removing the seats as Barefoot_Johnny has. I am considering cutting a hole in the top of the benches (with a 1 inch border) to gain access into the foam. I would actually cut two holes, leaving one 3-4 inch section complete in the center to help with the structural integrity. Replace it and leave some area for storage. And finishing by replacing the top with a hinged wooden seat... What are any thoughts on this? [/QUOTE]
