Hello Guys.
I've got an 80's model 15hp Mariner that runs great, but doesn't look very good. I'm thinking about spray painting the entire motor flat black. For those that have spray painted their outboard, can you share any tips you used or learned along the way. I want it to look good, without any runs. I have always heard, the preparation is the most important part of painting. What sort of prep work is required. Do you leave stickers on and paint directly over them or do you remove them prior to painting? I assume you remove the stickers. If this is the case, any tips on removing the stickers? Any advice on specific spray paint types/brands to use?
Thanks.
