[QUOTE="dyeguy1212, post: 99135, member: 1460"] Well today someone swooped in and bought my beloved 14 foot jon. I worked hard on it, and im sad to see it go. On the bright side, I managed to get 1400 bucks.. in michigan with its crap economy! Im looking into an 18 foot ranger from the 80's. Its an ugly brown color, and I was wondering what it would take to paint fiberglass. I saw that pettite makes a sandless fiberglass primer, and it looks like they suggest an anti fouling paint. Anyone have experience painting fiberglass, or if you dont, can you shed some light on the process? My uncle owns 2 collision shops, so Im hoping I can pull some strings and borrow the paint booth over the weekend this winter. I just don't know how to get an 18 foot boat into a good position to paint it... not like i can flip it over and paint the hull like on my jon ;) [/QUOTE]
