Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Climma AC Capacitors
Can anybody explain how I have gone my entire life working around household, industrial and marine equipment, and never replaced a capacitor on a motor, yet it seems to be a routine failure we talk

Mohammed,
1. The compressor is running based on using a long screwdriver as a stethoscope.
2. I'll check on the voltage issue you noted and see what I find. Did you pull the frig out and attach at

Mark,
Thanks for the reply but the seal is well adjusted. I checked both with the dollar bill test and an infrared thermometer looking for cold spots.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Climma AC Capacitors
Hi,
I just use a 35 dollar capacitor tester about every 6 months on every capacitor on Kimberlite. I always find a few that are low or too low to be operational.

Bill - Thank you. That is very kind of you! I will certainly look at the schedule and touch base with you if that seems feasible.
Thanks again.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Thickening polyurethane paint
Ben, We have had problems using accelerators in single part paints and varnishes since they tend to cause early crazing and failure of the finish. As far as paint viscosity, in general I have found

I'd avoid the accelerator.
Mixing chemistries in polyurethane paints is a bad idea. Accelerators are used in two part polyurethanes, not single part products--which are very different animals. The

I'm using white - specifically Hatteras off white 1990 from Interlux. It's close to what Bill R used.

For what it is worth, I did not use flattener, and had to thin the paint slightly.

Not sure about accelerator but maybe a possibility. I am using tool improperly per your comments. I'm holding it closer to vertical than horizontal. This is causing paint to drip out. I'll
