[QUOTE="Mizzie, post: 279543, member: 3140"] Thanks! The interior was already painted a grey color and it was sticking very well so what I did was was sand/scuff up the paint everywhere, blew out as much paint dust out of the boat as I could with my air compressor, hit the surface with a tack cloth, cleaned with a water/vinegar mix and finally a tack cloth again before laying down the paint. Any areas that I went down to bare aluminum I touched up with some self etching primer to create a toothy surface for the new paint to adhere to. I've read articles and post where people make it sound like rocket science and turn a fishing boat paint job into huge project. It's really actually simple with a good amount of prep your good to go. haha. Good luck! Mike [/QUOTE]
