Paul,
Looks like our next boat will be a pontoon (got to go along with the wifes
wishes once in a while) and as I don't have room for a lift, the boat will
be kept in the water.
I've seen damage from bottom paint on aluminum pontoons and thought I could
barrier coat the whole pontoons and then bottom paint. Will this work and
what prep should I do prior to barrier coat?
Only things I know about aluminum is it holds beer well.
Thanks, MMC.

I need to coat the inside of an aluminum pontoon with zinc chromate, in
order to do this it must be thinned. What solvent can be used to thin
zinc chromate?


use an aluminum filled moisture cured urethane (MCU) and/or an epoxy
paint.
