Paint color?

[Terry H]

I just banged out some large dents out of my old aluminum driftboat today and thinking I ought to paint this thing. I've had it over 20 years, and used it in some of the toughest whitewater in Oregon and Idaho, so it's showing it's age. It's very seaworthy so I'm gonna keep it. Anybody here have any suggestions on what color to paint this thing so it will look presentable. Thanks for any and all suggestions...Chief

Don't laugh but I use acric latex on a couple of rental row boats and it's lasted pretty good

How about sky blue.

Re: Paint color?

so the consensus is sky blue with acrylic latex...should I use flat, eggshell, semi, or gloss? Brush, roll, or spray? Any other thoughts or ideas? Chief
