[QUOTE="Brine, post: 121229, member: 1053"] No need to use primer. If the paint that's on the boat now sticks good, just rough up the surface so the Steelflex has something to grab. It the paint is flaking off, remove as much paint/primer to get down to the first solid layer and make sure it is roughed up. Just take into consideration that the most outer layer of paint/epoxy (in your case would be Steeflex) is dependend upon the layers between it and the hull. Most people like to remove everything down to the bare aluminum (myself included) but it isn't neccessary. [/QUOTE]
