Question for Mike Ray. Years ago you tried Rust-oleum marine paint on a 26 0r 28 I think.
How did it last?

Painted mine with Rust-oleum Topside, three years later holding up well.

Using Rust-oleum? Don't laugh; that's a great product that I've used for years.

Thank you captains. I've learned to be cheap from Fast Jeff.
Sounds like the way to go for me.

Looking to get top and hull painted on my 1988 express hardtop. I'm in Muskegon, Mi. Anyone know a place that does this?
Thanks.
