1. Remove the old caulking. We use a special tool from @teakdeckingsystems. 2. If your deck is both screwed and glued, considwe removing the screws. We chose to remove the screws since they only created a possibility for water to enter the construction. 3. Fill out every screw hole with epoxy. During the renovation, we learned it would be a good idea to fill the holes with epoxy as soon as you remove the screws to ensure you seal every single hole. 4. Route between all the teak strips. We routed all the way to the gel coat to have as much wood to work with as possible. We used a fine cutter where the caulking was across the grain. 5. Seam sanding. It helps remove the remaining caulking and gives the teak a fresh bonding surface. 6. Masking the teak strips. We chose to mask the wood to reduce the sanding process later on because we knew the teak wasn’t very thick. 7. Cleaning off with acetone. This helps remove dust and gives the caulking the best conditions to adhere to the wood and cure. 8. Start caulking. We used an air compressor caulking gun. It makes the process easier for large surfaces that need caulking - we used SIS 440 from @teakdeckingsystems. We also used a 3D-printed applicator for the caulk head, which minimizes the amount of caulking used. I could only find it on @hfindustrimarineaps website. 9. “Spoon” caulk further into the seams. We used a flexible putty knife to smoothing the caulking. 10. Pull off the masking. While removing the tape, we used scissors to cut just before the area where it hadn’t been caulked yet. 11. Remove the top of the caulking. We used a sharp stanley knife. We did this to minimize sanding, just as we did with masking. 12. Sanding with grit 80. We used the fine cutter’s sanding head for all the edges and an orbital sander for the larger areas. Side note: Sanding with grit 40. We believe the best way is to sand before routing to even out the wood. Unfortunately, we had many places where the wood was so worn out that it wouldn’t have been possible to follow the old tracks with the router after sanding. #diy #sailing #sailingdiy #teak #teakdeck #sailingdenmark #boatwork #shortoftheday
INSCREVA-SE E SEJA BEM-VINDO A BORDO: http://www.youtube.com/user/hashtagsal?sub_confirmation=1 Você sente saudades do mar? Acho que você vai gostar do nosso canal. Conheça a vida de pessoas que moram no mar, especialmente em veleiros. Tire uns minutos do seu dia para imaginar o quão diferente a sua vida pode ser. É uma série documental sobre um veleiro e dois amigos que entrevistam pessoas que escolheram morar no mar. Uma pausa de 10 minutos no seu dia para relaxar e imaginar em quão diferente a sua vida pode ser. Velejadores e curiosos, todos são bem-vidos a bordo. A maioria de nós já pensou alguma vez em mudar a vida radicalmente, como morar em uma casa de campo ou atravessar a America Latina de motocicleta, só para citar dois exemplos. A ideia do programa é fazer um alongamento com o nosso pensamento usando a vela com cenário e refletir: O que traz sentido para as nossas vidas, mesmo? Um episódio a cada lua nova. #SAL no Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hashtagsal #SAL no Instagram http://instagram.com/hashtagsal_oficial/ Adriano Plotzki no Twitter https://twitter.com/plotzki Criado e apresentado por Adriano Plotzki Produção executiva: Aline Senna Direção de fotografia Ernani: Oliveira Produção: www.aiaprodutora.com.br
