[QUOTE="Nevillizer, post: 98316, member: 1773"] Sand it good. Not down to bare metal (if its painted). I used my black and decker mouse sander on my old boat with 120 grit sand paper. Took me about 3 hours and 8 sanding pads to do the bottom & sides. I then blew it down with an air hose. I rinsed off real good with soap, a scouring pad and let dry. The site I researched said you will want at least 48 hours to pass before you paint the aluminum so it drys thoroughly. Now, with me I didn't paint the boat before I traded it off. Also, you will want to conecentrate any area that show corrosion or where the old paint is flaking off real bad. The reast of the area you just need to scuff up real good. PS: I am no expert in this by any means, but the process seemed sound so that is what I did. [/QUOTE]
