[QUOTE="thill, post: 501649, member: 4972"] Some good thoughts here. I don't feel like stripping down to metal and starting over. There is still bottom paint there. I could put Rustoleum or aluminum paint over what is there, and it might look decent, but what if the ablative paint starts wearing? Not a good look. I think it best if I just topcoat with a suitable bottom paint of the same color. Then the buyer can leave the boat in the water for the season, if desired, like the previous owner did. Less work, more consistent results [/QUOTE]
