[QUOTE="Givey1982, post: 419984, member: 21156"] So I bought this Kodiak a couple of months ago. I had the motor gone through and it just needed an impeller and carb clean/adjustment. Now I am working on getting a paint job on it. Not too worried about professional finish as much as I am adhering to the boat. I have sanded and cleaned the bare aluminum with acetone. I have painted the bare aluminum and most of the rest of the boat with the Rustoleum self etching primer (rattle can). I have several holes (previous owner mounting equipment etc) that I am filling with JB Weld. The gunwale has some sections that look as if someone took a hammer and beat it. I would like to fine some filler for that if anyone has any ideas. After that and some minimal sanding I will decide if to rattle can, roll or spray it. I am torn on each of these. I have never sprayed anything but I do have a small compressor and can get a cheap gravity fed sprayer from HF. Thoughts and opinions welcome Loving this forum [/QUOTE]
