My mast and boom had been painted many years ago and looked really beat up. My boat is a 1977 Islander 32. The orbital sander with some 220 grit made quick work of the flaking paint. I wiped it all down with denatured alcohol. The new paint went on easy and dried quickly. I just did the lower sections that you can see but some day I'll pull the mast and do it all. In the meantime, it really looks sharp!

It went on like water. After 4 coats of paint, still did not cover! I had to switch to another brand to get the job done! I would never buy again for any price?

I purchased one quart of TotalBoat Aluminum Boat Topside Paint to test for ease of application using my old spray guns. I test applied over prepped bare aluminum and previously painted aluminum. I am very happy with the results so far. The paint was easy to apply without thinning using HVLP gravity gun. I was able to achieve 6 wet mill application (I recall instructions call for 7) but I think 6 is the max I could do with sags. The paint dried reasonably quickly (wintertime in Florida so unheated temp was just barely above 50F) and would have benefited from heating. I did get some fish-eyes where I sprayed onto unsanded paint, so make sure you prep well! A second coat was easily applied atop the dry-to-touch first coat without sanding. After several days curing (paint didn't require that long, I was busy doing other stuff), I sanded with 220 (instructions say 320 but I couldn't find my stash) and applied a final coat. You will want to use 320 to reduce sanding swirls. Final matt/satin finish looks great. After about a week cure time, I can mar the finish with a wooden dowel, but I am unable to scratch through to metal. I do wonder if this final finish would benefit from addition of a hardner, but I assume none is available for this easy to use water based product.

Product went on well, and dried in timely fashion. The color was much lighter than what I was expecting 'Army Green' to be. It covered a lot of old glue and discolorations.

Project turned out well, except I was not able to get the colors I desired due to out of stock status.
