[QUOTE="Monster1, post: 509835, member: 34908"] I bought a used 1448 with 25hp johnson a few months ago. The motor ended up being tired, abused and just not what I want as a turn key rig. I bought a 20hp Suzuki that will arrive next week. My wife says the pig needs some lipstick to go with the pretty new motor. The 1995 lowe big jon hull is actually in really good condition and not all banged up. The old paint is really faded to almost pastel like green, but not peeling anywhere. I'm not wanting to invest a huge amount of time or prep into the paint. I'm not looking for a mirror finish. I'd actually prefer a rough almost bedliner like finish to protect the hull and give it a utility type look. Or at least just a really durable classic flat olive green finish. I've been looking at total boat because it's good under the water line and appears to involve the least amount of prep to get a good finish. But I'm not in the know about painting boats so any help greatly appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
