Just to update; the primed area now has three coats of the primer & four coats of the chlorinated rubber paint. We have ordered another tin, to enable the area above the water line to be painted with the same product.

I began applying bitumen paint to the underneath & after a solid five hours, I am about 20ft along, just another 65 to go!(followed by a second coat).

Need a break now so,off up to sunny Sydenham to watch the Palace game tomorrow,the things we do!
