    why is this a GOOD idea to paint the hull where the flotation is

    I did not remove anything because it was failing. Upgading motor/ center console/ wiring so I removed to run larger conduit chases and changing layout interior.

    why is this a GOOD idea to paint the hull where the flotation is

    Got It. Ive torn down my decking and removed the flotation from my last renovation 2010. there was just a little bit of moisture under deck , None of my pink flotation sheets absorbed water.

    Its an old post from 2014 where I saw the comment. . Ive been going through the restoration forums again as I have my 16'ss opened down to the hull again after 12 years (my resto). Nice to see what has held up after that time beneath the decking.

    why is this a GOOD idea to paint the hull where the flotation is

    why painting the hull before laying foam down. A mod mentioned, notice how so and so did this. Im wondering, why that was a good idea? have seen many rebuild threads and I for one did not paint the floor before adding flotation.

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    that's correct. I didn't use a hardener either. There are others here that have used it. I used aluminum etching primer/ and 2 coats of Rustoleum. I will be doing the same this winter as I have upgrades and a new motor going on the back, so I stripped her down to the flotation and stringers.
