Pontoon Boat - Aluminum Panel Repainting
[Massachusetts]
+++
I have some aluminum pontoon boat panels (above the water
line/deck mounted) that need repainting. I am not intending to remove
the original paint (light brown). I will paint over it. What prep and
paint type is advisable? I may have to mechanically remove some
adhesively applied striping which may expose bare metal. What is the
best prep for the bare alumuinum surface that may result. Will the
use of this prep and its contact with the light tan paint to be
painted over adversely affect the adherance of the new coat to the
original paint?
