Thanks guys!

Yeah, 2 pack would be nice 'n' hard but I'm not sure how it would go on
without a spray gun!?

The boat, outboard & trailer was a grand so it's no show boat I'm afraid.

I've replaced the old leaf spring suspension with new hubs and
indespension
units plus jokey wheel & paint, going to get the outboard tuned tomorrow
to
fix poor start and idle, and I've already repaired the ply deck (seats now
held in place!) and bought lifejackets, anchor, ropes etc.

So.... £250 would be extravagent right now and the thought of trying to
get
the boat off the trailer, plus removing the outboard, grab rails, screen,
ladder and so-forth sends a chill down my spine!

Rollers it will have to be! Will 2 pack roller ok?

Thanks,

David

I've seen 280 grit paper recommended to rub down but what
primer/topcoats
should I look for? Do I need special paints?

BTW - I will be rollering/brushing the paint.

I know this depends on the age/worth of the boat, but it would look
much
nicer if you get it sprayed. I had a whole boat done once for £250.
Anyway, people seem to recommend "2pack". I don't know how you spell
it,
but it is a brand name I think...

2 Pack paint is a base paint plus hardener, which gets mixed before
application - hence the '2 pack' - no relation to a dead rapper ;-}

The hassle with getting a boat sprayed is taking it to someone to do it!

Certainly for a home job rolling will give it a better finish.
