This is truly an evil evil thing. I removed all the hardware from the area surrounding the lazzerette hatch this afternoon. Sadly, it was not bedded in 4200, or even 5200. It was gooped in Silicone sealant.
I know I will have to remove it, and grind all of the gell coat off that has been in contact with it, and then hope foe th best.
The reason for this post is simply to say, for anyone who may not know.
[size=6]Do not ever use silicone sealant on any surface on your boat that will ever need to be painted![/size]
It really does not stick well, and it wicks into the paint/gelcoat and makes it nearly impossible to get paint to stick to anyting in the future!
Thanks for listening. I may be better now![]()
