Hi guys,

Sorry, I am not much of a boater. I am however looking to paint a
device that's going to spend alot of time in the water. It's a
stainless steal water probe device. I need to paint the outside of it
and I have used several paints but they end up bubbling up after a
wile. I used primer and all, with no luck, and did send down the
thing before painting.

Could any of you recommend a good pain, and were to buy, which I can
use to paint stainless steal? Something


Why would you want to paint stainless?




Just for aesthetic reasons. It's been welded on quite a bit.


Is it in a shape that allows buffing and polishing? Painting is the last
thing I'd do.
