I just sanded n primed my 10ftr with self etching primer, Im couriuos if the Krylon Camo paint or something like an acrylic paint used on farm equipment would be better, I read B4 that some have used acrylic but Im not sure of the long term. Any thoughts Please.

I'm pretty sure as long as you use an acrylic enamel you should be fine. I used Pettite Easypoxy (here is a link to what I used, not there website, click HERE.. if you want a shine, this brand or Interlux Brightside is the way to go.
 
The Krylon will work fine but being flat, it isn't really great for longevity if exposed to the elements 24/7. It has a tendency to fade and chalk over in a few years' time.

Since it's flat, there really isn't anything that you can do to restore the finish outside of adding another coat of paint.
 
funny that you post this because i'm literally going to paint my boat today with the krylon camo paint (olive)

i'll let you know how it turns out!
