[QUOTE="Neilyboy, post: 86765, member: 1518"] I hope this picture can give ya more info (as my painter buddy, the guy in the pictures is the one who picked it all out). We went to Born Paint Co. in downtown Peoria, IL https://www.bornpaint.com/ [img]https://neilyboy.mtco.com/pics/boat/paint.jpg[/img] From what I know it cost me $140 for all the primer and paint and hardener and whatever else we needed there. If anyone wants more specific info I can get it. I think we used just the standard 'shop line' of paint. The mixing ratios are on some literature that came with it all (if anyone wants it just let me know). As for prep work. We just did a 180/220 sanding on the entire thing (took forever) then shot two solid coats of primer (probably 3 on the outside). Then no prep work between that and the topcoat. Just laid on about 4 on the outside and a good three on the inside. Turned out pretty darn good for two guys in a garage sucking up the fumes.. Ill update with further progress (probably friday).
