[QUOTE="skyline223, post: 379154, member: 14863"] There are many good options to paint an aluminum boat, but to me the most vital step is to be sure and use an etching primer. Rust-Oleum's self-etching primer is a zinc-chromate based primer that adheres to aluminum very well. It is very much like what is used in aircraft manufacturing. Many members of this forum have had great luck using rust-oleum and other off-the-shelf aerosol paints. These days it will surprise you what they are capable of. [/QUOTE]
