[QUOTE="EYDavis, post: 297912, member: 10661"] So I've got a partially stripped boat and a trailer that's coming around. But I've got to rock and roll. So Rustoleum makes a leak sealer, says it's paintable with oil paint. And I've got some of the 3m 5200. And I've got some zinc aluminum primer. And I've got some sandpaper. And I've got some cans of silver hammered rustoleum. And I've got some vinegar. Methinks its time to get rolling. Scuff every bit of the outside. Wash boat. Wipe down with Vinegar. Dry. Prime any exposed aluminum with the zinc primer. 3m 5200 on every rivet, rattle, or leak, or weird seam. Couple coats of Rustoleum leak sealer on outside seams/rivets with time to dry. Then brush or roll a couple coats of hammered silver rustoleum (sale rack at Lowe's...10 bucks...got 3 cans...guess what's going on the trailer?). Quick and light 400 sand, then one more good coat of Rustoleum hammered silver. I figure with drying time between coats, I'm in the water soon. Then chip away at the projects over time. Does that plan make anyone sick to their stomach? I know it's not the usual. I may have to strip the inside first with the nasty chemical stuff. there's carpet adhesive in there that is just mean.
