I notice that darker repaints show scratches more. Should I go to a white or beige or are there things to do with the priming to reduce scratches showing through? White is better, but not always - stick to the pure whites rather than the off whites. You will need to sand the current color to clean off the wax and take out the scratches. Then prime, then paint. Most folks forget the prime part. Later, Tom What primer do you use? Also, will an Awlgrip paint job come out nicely by rolling and back-brushing? I've got a 17' fiberglass boat that I'm thinking about painting. |
