[QUOTE="Azdesert, post: 510005, member: 34734"] The key to any paint job is prep. Doesn't matter too much what you want to put on it, you have to prep it or your going to be redoing it again. The easier fast part of the job is laying the paint down. I've been painting all kinds of stuff for a good many years and anything requires that prep time. Now that I beat that prep horse, I recently painted my trailer with farm and implement, over a POR15 base. POR15 is great stuff, but it's not cheap. I put Gator Glide on the bottom of my boat, seems like a very nice product but again not cheap. My goal is not to have to redo any of it in my lifetime and I plan on passing on my little boat on to family. So our goals are a bit different, hopefully you can glean something from this. Good Luck and post some pics on how your project ends up. [/QUOTE]
