I know in general boats are painted with a gelcoat. But I want to paint/repair the upper deck of my boat where I dropped the kicker motor. I was told Marine paint would be ok for this area.
Can someone educate me in the painting process like sanding, primer, coats(How many), waxing??? basically I want to do a professional job without sending it out to have it done.
I don't want wifey to find out.....Yet
Please help me. Thanks
