Paint
« on: May 14, 2010, 08:37:50 PM »

  A question not really bike related but boat related.Anyone have a close estimate on what it might cost to get a 28 foot nordic repainted haven't really talked to any paint shops yet.It is a marine grey right now and want to redo the hull white to go with the new interior.

The Acrylic paint job on my sailboat is now at least seven years old and is just now looking like it needs repainting. Paint it yourself and save LOTS OF MONEY. Just remember that PREPARATION is the key to good looking paint on a boat.



I prefer the 10 foot rule myself. If it looks good at 10 feet, don't repaint it.  :good:

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.

  It isn't looking to bad but would look much better if redone in white instead of the grey.If I do the sanding and prep work would be much cheaper I am sure not really set up for paint.
