Balcotan Wood adhesives
Red Lead Putty
|
 |
Can be used straight from the tin/keg with a pallet knife into the seam. If when finished "fairing in" dip a clean pallet knife in Linseed oil and work back the other way. It will iron out any little holes and leave it like a babys bum ready for the primer paint
To those of you using this for the first time fair/sand your hull FIRST and then when "fair" apply Red Lead Putty Do NOT sand over. When the seams are done apply lightly a coat of primer paint to seal and then you may undercoat and Gloss paint.

| TBS Deck Seam Glue |
 |
A Traditional Deck Seam Glue updated to cope with the higher temperatures we enjoy today Melted and poured into deck seams to provide a waterproof seal.
N.B. NEVER EVER PLACE THE STEEL DRUM STRAIGHT ONTO THE BURNER. MELTING THE BOTTOM WILL MEAN THE GASES CANNOT ESCAPE AND SO WILL EXPLODE. ALWAYS SMASH OUT AND HEAT IN A CAST IRON POT. IF YOU BUY A CAST IRON POURER FROM ME PUT INTO THE POT ALSO SO THAT IT ATTAINS THE SAME HEAT AND WILL KEEP GLUE RUNNING WHEN POURING.

| Black Tar Varnish |
|
This is the real black tar varnish not the thin synthetic stuff that HSE wants us to use. The thin stuff is, and I repeat is, synthetic in the same way as buying turpentine which if you look closely at the labels is turpentine substitute, whereas again I only sell genuine turpentine.

| Genuine Pine Tar (Stockholm Tar) |
|
This is no longer a banned product. Due to the hue and cry of our Baltic friends who have treated the roofs of their churches and museums ( they being wooden tiles) those chaps in suits in Brussels have had to back off. Not that we as Brits made any real noises(Probably because there is no money in it) However we can still use it and for that I thank our Baltic friends who made all the running.
Sold in 1 litre tins, 5 litre tins and 12.5 litre kegs.
As Classic Boat state its marvellous stuff for your anchor locker painted on the wood there but I have also seen a well known figure having a good sniff when suffering from a hangover.............

*A new product*
For many years I along with many other customers tried products available. For me they never worked through a season.
What I have done on my own boat is very simple. It is a melange of Lanolin and Red Lead Powder. I heat the plastic pot in hot water and roughly spread it out on the prop surface. Then with a warm air gun I spread it with a brush.
Q.E.D. ? Well time will tell but again the old traditional way may work. |
