[QUOTE="Maxamillion, post: 433986, member: 14031"] Got the transom stripped and painted today. I am doing the transom alone first to see how the paint looks, and so I can hang the motor on the boat quicker. The process I went through is gonna be the same when I paint the rest of the boat. -strip all paint from aluminum(wire brush on drill)(sander) -Sand all bare aluminum with 150 grit paper to give the paint something to stick to -clean all surfaces with mineral spirits -give all surfaces a bath in white vinegar and let air dry -wipe clean with dry cloth -prime with zinc chromate primer (2 light coats) This is how far I got today, I will be rolling and tipping on the rustoleum topside black marine paint on Saturday.
