I did when i painted the transom on my boat.I used Duponts high end paint and clear coat and it has held up great. Mine lives on the trailer and does not sit in the water all summer.
Actually it was 3 coats color and about 4 coats clear.
If you use a marine paint you don't need clear coat, but if you go with what Gary used 2 stage paint you will need a clear coat.
Just depends on who's paint you use.
