[QUOTE="Sharpix, post: 234109, member: 6051"] It MUST be coated with something. :arrow: In a day or two, the bare aluminum oxidizes and forms a clear almost non visible coat that prevents the paint from gripping when painted. If you let it stay like that for months, you have to use a aluminum oxide remover prior to painting (primer and paint) or resanding the entire hull.... ask me how i learned! 12ft is peeling. #-o I recommend you to put the primer before left it for three months. That way, you only lightly sand and paint the color coat. 8) [/QUOTE]
