Default prop paint

Sorry....just coat it with the same paint you used to do your bottom.


NO!

DO NOT DO THIS

I'm surprised at Joe's suggestion, which will cause electrolysis
corrosion on the prop. If you're going to paint your prop with anti-
fouling, you need to either prime it first OR use a non-metal-based
anti-fouling.


It dont matter anyway..it's not going to last long anyway.. I tried
everything Scotty, and nothing last more than 1 year. After a year you
need to jump in and scrape the wheel often.


Barnacles won't grow on a prop that gets run every week or so.
