| P.S. ,,,,you want a strong tape line,( kinda thick) ,,,that makes it easier to sand,,,,,,,,,but use a block,,,and use 2500 grit wet.

| So tape off just the 50 cent size mark or tape of a larger area? Put the paint on and take the tape off right away. I was thinking very thin paint as this is more a dirty finger smudge. what do you think? There is an edge about 2 feet away to the left I can paint to but no edge going to the right for about a mile and a half. |

| sorry i didnt explain that part,,,,sometimes i get confused on who i'm talkin to,,hehe ,,,tape off a square,,,,not a circle,,,you'll ALWAYS see that circle,,prep it like you was prep'n ya paint for 1 more coat,,,,,ya might try a "thin" tape line,,,its just that for ME its easier to blend in if its a proud line.,,,and i wouldnt go to your "edge",,,you'll NEVER be able to blend in that much,,,, no matter how you mix,,roll it on,,,it jus wont match.

| You will never see it when it hits the water. I wouldn't do anything for about a month. If it still bothers you do the repair, but I bet you a beer a month from now you will even forget where it is. |

| ya,,what he said,,hehe ,,i always forget bout the "flow" factor,,,most boats i painted i didnt see again for a few years,,,and your paint is thicker snailing then when i spray,(see,,thats why i always tell ya ta ask the "snailers" to be surehehe),and if its a "stain" not a fingerprint,,then even if it dont flow out,,,ya would be able to wet sand it out.

| I wiped it with a damp cloth this morning and it helped some. Was wanting to hit it with some alcohol or something but was waiting to hear from you guys (notice the patience here, I have very little!) . I loose the boat to a fabricator tomorrow for two weeks who is installing a new hard top. So leave it as see or hit it in the am with alcohol? |
