Curious about Wooden Canoes
I just acquired a 1968 Old Town Trapper. It is wood rib and plank with fiberglass skin. It was originally painted yellow and then green. I would like to refurbish the outside coating.
What is the best way to remove the paint, sanding?
Might the original yellow be lead based?
Is the resin on these boats clear enough to simply varnish and show off the planking?
