[QUOTE="Vermonster, post: 248939, member: 7992"] Let's go the other way :) I was thinking of using 150 grit on mine is that too rough? I've already sanded the railings and bow cap with it and it doesn't seem too rough if I run my hand on it. I plan on leaving bare aluminum on the railing and re-paint the hull. I was afraid anything higher wouldn't take the flake and bad paint spots. I just plan to clean up the flake and scuff the rest. Then acetone. Then Prime bare spots with self-etching primer. Then paint. Is 150 grit too rough still? [/QUOTE]
