[QUOTE="tonynoriega, post: 281491, member: 9694"] Hi guys... I'll get right too it. Should I coat the bottom of my boat in SteelFlex? It's a 16' 1953 Alumacraft... After wire brushing off all of the oxidation and taking a sander to her, I have found gouges, scrapes, tons of bumps, nicks and dings all over the bottom... Was just going to keep it bare aluminum and maybe hit it with a 1000 grit sand paper and a buffer, but am wondering if that is worth the time. Would the SteelFlex smooth out those imperfections and create a baby butt smooth bottom? Was also considering doing the inside bottom, but that has a non skid type of paint that was used originally....Can I put SteelFlex over that? [/QUOTE]
