I think the guy did a very good job. There was about 20 years worth of
paint on the hull, on top of the original barrier coat. I don't know if the barrier coat was properly applied. The pic at the bottom is the original bottom
paint. You can see where large chunks fell off. In other parts the barrier coat adhered very well and the soda blasting didn't touch it. In other places the barrier coat came off.
The alligator effect is places where the barrier coat came off in small strips. The gelcoat is fine.
