I recently removed the paint from my Evinrude motor down to the gel coat. I painted using Tempo zinc chromate and with four coats of Tempo marine paint. I let it dry for a day and than sanded using 800, 1000, 1500, & 2000 grit wet/dry paper. The surface is smooth. Someone mentioned I should clear coat. If so is the surface too slick? Should I re-sand using 800 paper? Should I clear coat at all? :confused: Any thoughts will be appreciated. Thanks

papa,<br /><br />You can if you want to, just go ahead. Best to sand between coats though.<br /><br />By the way, the cowl never had clear when it was new.<br /><br />I'll bet it looks good.
