[QUOTE="russ010, post: 89462, member: 677"] It will look good with out it - trust me on that one! I used cheap but good zinc chromate primer on my boat and put 2 good layers. I think used Pettit Easy Poxy (equivalent of Brightside) and it will still come out shining and looking awesome. You get the best look from the prep work - multiple light/thin coats (atleast 2, but preferably 3), and wetsand with like 250-300 grit sand paper. It won't seem like that paper is doing much, but you'd be amazed the difference if you didn't do it. That is where you get the best job. Are you going to spray it or brush it on? either way, I recommend getting a brush or spray thinner to use. It will use your paint to the fullest and give you a lot more to work with. [/QUOTE]
