I am a new boat owner of an old boat. It's a '72 Starcraft with a painted aluminum hull. I took it out for the first time and noticed numerous leaks when I took it out of the water. I've been reading as much as I can about aluminum repair. It has a floor in it that I can't remove so I can only access the hull from the outside. I'd love to strip the entire hull and do it right, but I don't want to go through that right now. I'm thinking about using the 3M 5200 sealant on the leaks that I know of and along all of the seams.
Any general recommendations and or surface preperation recommendations?
Thanks for your help!
