[QUOTE="BassDominator, post: 149681, member: 3149"] for paint i would not go with anything you find in your local hardware store. i painted my trailer and a previous boat with rustoleum and it peeled and did not look great. so this time around i did a google search for auto paint places around my town. i found one, went in, and these people were experts. i walked out with tons of knowledge and was assured my paint would not peel crack or chip. i got an entire gallon of paint for around 60 bucks...which if you compare to rustoleum those prices are not that bad for real automotive enamel... my trailer looks amazing and i know the paint will be there for the next 10 years. my two cents is spend a bit more money and get better quality paint...may cost more but taking a boat out on the water that you spent 100 hours working on only to have the paint peeling and chipping is not that much fun. i did that once and the only way to fix it was to sandblast the thing and start all over.
