To answer all your questions...1) The LOWE design was something I came up with. 2)Prices vary anywhere from $6 for a roughly 6"x6" - $25 for what you see on the boat. Registration numbers in a single color and just about any font...

    Adam- I used 1qt each of rust-oleum professional grade metal primer and "safety red" rust-oleum professional grade paint. It took about 3/4 of the qt to apply 2 coats. I brushed each coat and didn't add any thinner to the paint. So it's kinda thick... turned out pretty good I think.

    You know I thought you were a GATOR fan too Russ when I saw the boat colors.... :lol: . I'm a Va Tech fan myself, but Maroon and Orange on a boat just doesn't do it, I need something bolder.

    LOWE 1431 build

    I started the new LOWE build this week, the weather down here has been in the 60's not too bad for painting. I started with 2 coats of primer then laid two coats of top color. Deciding the color was the easy part. I spent about 2 hrs today trying to decide how to lay the deck out.. My wife...

    What paint to use??

    Okay, I got the boat sanded and 1 coat of primer on. However when I was reading the label, after I put the 1st coat on #-o, I saw "RUST-OLEUM PROFESSIONAL ENAMELS AND PRIMERS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR WATER IMMERSION". I noticed they make a Marine Grade but I thought that label said "for above...
