painting the bilge in a tinny.

[nigelr]

Old pressed hull, flaking paint removed, washed with Blitz, then washed with dish detergent to remove any residue and thoroughly rinsed.
Ready to paint, but with what? Just paint the bare patches, the whole bilge or just allow to oxidise.........
Cheers.

It would probly jsut need a coat of etch primer to make your top coat stick , you dont need to go over board cause it's not a high visibilty area (is it ?)so what ever you do is going to look heaps better,

also feather sand the edges of where the paint has peeled for a better finish, the paint will most likly look diff if you only paint spots, if you go to any paint shop you can pick up a med roller, it's just a mini roller but will make the job much faster and better looking. cheers
