How Much Paint do you need ? Bottom Sq Ft Formula:  
( Boat Length x (Beam + Draft) ) x 0.6

-You can put ablative over hard paint but you don’t want to put hard paint over ablative

I highly recommend using ablative paint as hard paint doesn’t wear off overtime like ablative and will build up with every coat you paint making the boat heavier in the water and having to blast the coats off every time can be extremely tedious and expensive.  Also, if the boat is out of the water , after a just few days hard paint will oxidize and be useless.  Ablative can be taken out of the water for a long period of time and splashed back in and it will still be effective.  

Taping - pull off the tape shortly after you are finished painting as it can be difficult to get off if left on for too long and stuck to dried paint, and of course, this is a very satisfying part of the job. ; )

You want to Wear gloves and glasses during the whole process and a respirator and coveralls as well while sanding and painting toxic anti fouling paint.  

*** Make sure you leave yourself some paint for the stand squares and any other areas the boat has been resting on , i.e. bottom of keel

Make sure you tape off your metallic running gear / out drives / etc when using any copper based paint as it can cause corrosion.

Wet Blaster I use : https://clearblast.com/clearblast-150/
Tip: If you want to save money on renting one of these or a similar one , find somebody else in the yard who wants to use one too and schedule your jobs around the same day or two.
