I did prepare the drive according to manufacturers directions.
Is there a better paint for out drives then the primer and then anti
fouling drive paint scheme?
Primer specifically for aluminum?
Wire brushing may be a problem, embedding steel in the aluminum.
The primer was for aluminum out drives but I wonder if wire brushing
actually polished the aluminum and that is why it didn't stick. Another
poster suggested a different type of paint. This time I think I will light
sand to scuff up the surface, wash with dish soap and then prime and paint
with a different brand of paint.
thanks for the post,
