[QUOTE="Kriseffinger, post: 300065, member: 9611"] Got to work on the boat last night, I removed the 2 rear bench seats first. I have a couple questions moving forward: 1. I have some leaky rivets and I bought a quart of Gluvit to seal them up, what type of prep work do I need to do, remove paint, rough up the surface, any tips on using this product? 2. I plan on painting the inside of the boat, what type of paint have people had success with and how much of the old paint do I have to remove before painting? I have seen a lot of people using Rustoleum marine topside, any opinions? 3. The very bottom of the boat needs to be repainted as well; I was planning on using a wire-wheel on a grinder to remove the old paint, pro's cons of this? What type of paint is recommended for the bottom of the boat? 4. I am planning on fabricating some half seats in place of the middle bench from aluminum angle or C-channel, is it ok to just use the existing brackets from the original bench seats on the side of the boat?
