[QUOTE="scoobeb, post: 334075, member: 6843"] what he said on iboats.com You can use the acetone before you grind out the pits and just use the acid after grinding....the acetone will remove contaminates so you dont push them down into the surface while grinding. The acid etches the aluminum, so to speak, and the water removes residuals before the bond. He said put the acid on last so it acts like an etch for the epoxy.Thats why i'm showing you this.Does it matter either way?I just want to make sure it sticks to the aluminum if i do it.But as you said it will last a long while like it is no matter what i do so that makes me feel a bit better.
