Well I'm going to go look at an outboard tomorrow and the color is navy blue which I'm not a very big fan of. I tried searching on the forum for topics about painting your outboard, but couldn't find anything. I don't have a spray gun, but there has to be another simple way to paint an outboard and make it look pretty nice. Anybody have any suggestions, and if you do is there anyway you could post some pictures or detail the painting procedure? Thanks guys.
It will look nice but NOT for Long ... Valspar rattle cans ...
The marine envirement Requires special Products and aplication techniques NOT available to the Public Due to the Enviromental NAZIS requiring arrestor Pads in spray Booths :-(
Thanks! I'm guessing you meant to say Valspar? Well if I was to paint the outboard with this paint, how many coats of paint should I do, and should I add a clear coat when finished? What's the life expectancy before this stuff starts wearing off? Sorry for asking so many questions I just want to know all the details before I make an outboard look like complete crap haha
TomFL repainted the cowling of his Yamaha with factory matched rattle can paint, Str8outha9c has detailed wet sanding, buffing & sealing. There is a lot of information on Microskiff regarding this and also on the internet. You can do it, just takes some time & patience. Good luck!
I Did VW Sheet metal for the customers willing to pay for it ... Glass Bead Clean / Prime and them Imron or Centari 99a pitch Black ...
