<div style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif; font-size:10pt;"><div>All,</div><div> </div><div>Ok, I was going to take my pressure hull ( it's finished , BTW) down and have an outfit zinc coat it but now I'm thinking that I should spend that money on a heavy duty air compressor and a sand blaster and do it myself. Since I'm sure I will need to be recoating places where I'm doing thru hulls and such. But my question is do I need to worry about the compatibility between the zinc coating and the epoxy that will on over the zinc ?? Should I put the zinc on the inside too ? Are there different types of zinc coatings? </div><div> </div><div>Brian</div></div>
