Hatch pickup from R.W. Little - 2010

September 2010 - At Marina Cortez Harbor Island, San Diego, CAR.W. Little called and the hatch was ready from paint. I went and picked it up but there were too many holidays in the paint so I told them to fix it. I paid for it and took the hardware. This will require another trip.



Debbie had ordered some 3M 101 from a web site but they sent another product. We decided to send it back and get 3M 4000 UV Marine Adhesive for bedding the hatch 3M 101 has been discontinued.

“3M 4000 UV Marine Adhesive  is a fast cure medium strength sealant. 3M 4000 UV Marine Adhesive is a one-part polyether sealant that cures to a firm, rubbery, water-tight seal. Excellent ultraviolet light (UV) resistance. Very low odor. Remains flexible. Bonds and seals metal, gelcoat, fiberglass, wood and plastic. Ultra violet resistance makes it ideal for bonding deck hardware, hatches, portholes, railings and navigation lights. Better choice (than 5200 polyurethane) for parts that may ever need removal or replacement, such as transducers. Use 3M 4000 UV Marine Adhesive Cure below the both above and below the waterline. ”
