[QUOTE="lrusty, post: 465205, member: 24621"] So I have a 1870 landau that i'm remodeling for a duck boat that has never had paint on it and still in the raw. I have decided to go with the styx river camo stencil kits in max 4 and I was wondering since duck boats usually get well used is it worth it to spend money on a gallon of primer like alumahawk just to paint over it with a camo job? Or should I just go on down to Walmart and get some self etching primer in whatever color and spray it after? I also was wondering if anyone has used this styx river paint? Would It be better just trying to match the four cans they use to a different brand that more readily available and if so what brand do you suggest? While I don't want to spend a bunch of money on something like paint I also don't want to have to repaint it in a couple years if I decide to upgrade boats. Any suggestions or advise would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
