One question: my boat is bare aluminum in several spots, but the original paint is in several others. Its like a blob here, blob there. Its smooth all over. And this is after completely painting the boat with Duralux paint and it didnt take. I originally scuffed and painted over the old paint but it turned into a big mess of spider webs and paint that would never dry. A month later and Im ready to start again. Only this time Im not spending big money on marine paint. Anyhow, you live and learn.
Can i use the self etching over both the bare aluminum AND old paint for one uniform primer job over the entire boat? Or do I have to patch the bare aluminum with the self-etching primer and nothing on the old paint? Thanks for any info.
