Boat of Garten station painting part two - 2nd-6th July 2018

 
The second week of painting was from 2nd to 6th July, and this picture shows how it was left after the first weekend, when nearly all the undercoat had been applied.
 


So on Monday Ray and Colin completed the undercoating and we were joined by Dick for Tuesday and Wednesday when the brown top coat was commenced.


Great progress was made on Wednesday with the very welcome help of four fiends from the P/Way Mike, Neil, Martin and Iain.  The gutters were painted and a start made on applying the cream.
 
Ray and Colin continued on Thursday and Friday, but some time was lost with a mix up in the brown paint supplied, still all the brown was complete by Friday evening and Mike returned the following Tuesday to complete the top coat on most of the windows, thus allowing Ian’s great floral arrangements to be put in place ready for the 40th anniversary celebrations.
 

 
Next task for the Ellon Team, paint the other side!
Thanks to Colin Frost photos/text.
