[QUOTE="Douglasdzaster, post: 493630, member: 27803"] I was looking through all the Rustoleum available. Man they have every kind of black, flat to glossy. I thought for a minute you know my truck is black. Might look good. Then I remembered how fast the surface got hot when the sun hit the truck while I’m detailing it. I ran across this stuff. Have you heard of Duralux depending on color it’s $26-$50 for a gallon. I’m hoping to find a flat sand color Or similar to what the boat is now (khaki) for the topside. That’s the color of the new cover. The paint on it now is chalky with a few rubbed bare spots I’ll etch prime but I rubbed a little with 400 grit today and it looked solid underneath. I really hate to have to strip it down to bare aluminum and prime and so on. Im hoping I can sand clean and paint. The Duralux almost sounds to good to be true for marine paint. Heck I even thought about a blue. I’m bad at picking out paint getting home and it’s bad,bad,bad. 😂 I think that’s why I’m trying to paint it the same color. [/QUOTE]
