: I didn't say the staple holes were TOO visible, I said they weren't visible
: at all, once you've put your boat in the water. You see staples holes are
: water soluble.

: I was suggesting that it would be worthwhile to use staples if you are having
: trouble laying your strips flat against the stems or any other part of the
: boat rather than have a surface resembling a shingled roof.

: I only use staples below the waterline on my kayaks. The rest of the boat is
: done stapless.

: Time is an issue for me. I can't take weeks to strip a boat. I use hot glue
: and strip a hull or deck in two to three days depending on how many phone
: calls I'm taking or how many of these postings I'm answering.

: COME ON, raid my shop. My attack cat is waiting for you!

: Rob

Oh, You got one too?? :) Dogs won't even come into my Yard to cra.... uh, do their thing. My cat stalks them and hisses until they just walk on by. Even My dog walks a wide girth. :)
