[QUOTE="Brine, post: 175195, member: 1053"] Nice looking rig MDF. Here are a few suggestions for your questions. 1. Regular Exterior Plywood found at all the big-box retailers will do the job. 2. Spar Urethane would be my first choice. I just haven't seen enough feedback on the resins to reccomend them. 3. There are so many paints out there, it's hard to guide you without knowing what your finished expectations are and your desired budget. Interlux and Petit are known for quality marine paints, but the options run from Rustoleum to sky's the limit. If you expose any of the aluminum in your prepwork, you'll want to use a self etching primer. If the paintjob you have on there now is on there good, I'd bypass taking it down to bare aluminum and use a regular primer recommended by the same supplier you get the paint from. Hope this helps.
