[QUOTE="scoobeb, post: 414014, member: 6843"] Ok johnny,I will use acetone instead. This is my plan, degrease the whole engine from top to bottom, then wet sand it just to rough it up a bit,clean it with acetone, spray one or two coats of spray paint, let it set for a while till it dries(how long should I wait to wet sand after the first 2 coats),wet sand again,clean with acetone again,shoot the final 2 coats, is that correct johnny? Please chime in if you can add anything I'm doing wrong or if it's perfect the way I just explained it? I want to do this so it will last for many, many yrs . I will take pics of the outboard while I'm working on it. [/QUOTE]
