Painting Flat Bottom

[jckjes7]

I recently purchased a 12 foot flat bottom boat. It needs a new paint job, and I'm thinking about doing it myself.

I've done some research on the procedure and know I need to sand the old paint off, clean the boat, prime it, and then paint it.

I was just checking the boards for anybody that has any experience that could offer some advice like what paint I should use, how I should do it, etc.

Thanks in advance!

Why go elsewhere? There is some great information here on BR about refurbishing tins. Here are a few in the articles section
