Показать описание
James is back this week documenting some of the restoration work happening aboard the ship. New volunteer Jim has been thrown right into it by needle gunning around the base of the stack in preparation for priming and painting. Elsewhere, the engineers tinkered with the whaleboat's engine and James began looking for replacement springs to repair one of the main engine oil filters.

Ryan sent me! I was watching the battleship New Jersey channel and he mentioned your channel so I came over to subscribe and meet the volunteers. I see you already have episodes introducing everyone so I'll start watching some videos! Thanks for everything you do to keep this ship and it's memory alive. I'm a docent at my local museum so I appreciate the work that goes into this stuff! Thank you!

I am retired Navy (22 years). I chuckled when I saw the title of this video. My first ship was USS Rowan (DD-782), commissioned in 1945. Running rust was a constant battle. I remember pulling into Hong Kong. Suzie and her ladies would paint the hull. We had to look pretty. All moored ships were rigged for dress ship.

What do you use as a rust converter/killer before you prime and paint topside?

Are those filter springs something you can find off the shelf?

Is a 'rust restoring' primer of any value in this environment?
