[QUOTE="Victor Coar, post: 43341, member: 501"] When I bought my boat it was the original alum. surface. I scuffed it up and used Duplicolor self etching primer. On the inside I used Duplicolor Acryllic Enamel. on the interior bottom I used Duplicolor Trunk Paint I thought the texture would be nice for grip- THIS WAS A HUGE MISTAKE ! ON MY FIRST TRIP OUT IT GOT WET AND RUBBED OFF. PLEASE DONT MAKE THIS MISTAKE. I was able to patch the leak(s) and it has been fine since but I wouldn't do it again. On the outside above the waterline I used Duplicolor SUV and Truck Paint this worked really well then I clearcoated it. on the bottom exterior with Steelflex#9 I found this paint sort of hard to work with but It works really well and dries glossy and hard. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
