Thinking about going with a black base and bright orange/blue blocks/stripes because it would be beautiful, but you never ever see black boats (except SUCK MY WAKE!) and I am wondering what the problems are other than the obvious high maintenance and burning feet walking on the deck. Would it...

Will anybody be at the show to hand paint names or reg numbers at the show?

Hi, I am getting a runner bottom Vdrive that needs paint. The guy I am getting it from has sanded down all the original coat. What would be the proper steps for prep and paint, and/or would gel coat be better? What product would be best and easier to work with? :)hand

I've posted this question in the jetboat section, but figured I may as well post here as well. Any of you ever painted an acrylic splash guard? My Wife and I got a nice splash guard with the Crusader Tunnel we bought. It's in good shape, fits perfect, no cracks, etc. But regrettably it's brown...

My Wife and I always wanted to our pump to matched our boat's colors. Black is cool, as is white. But seeing some of you guys' pumps on here (and at the lake) that are painted to match the color scheme of your boat got us hooked. So I set about doing it. Pain in the arse! Had all the components...

Well, I am thinking of painting my motor to match my boat. Does anyone have their motor painted/ powder coated? Can you post some pics? Can't decide what I want to powder coat and don't want to powder coat. I am thinking of going with a Candy Green to match the green on the boat. Right now I...

I would like to paint the floors of my Campbell, but before I do I want to put a coat of resin over the old glasswork to fill and smooth the surface. I have easy access to poly resin, but the hardener has wax added. Do I need to sand the surface of the old glass to prepare for the resin? Should...
