So much for your winter project John, winter doesn't officially start till the 21 of Dec. you must have another one sitting outside the door waiting to come in lol. You keep going like this and you will have enough of them to put on a StarCraft boat show in the spring.

Hey John. Looking better with each post man. Just a bit of curiosity here. Are you give her some new paint or anything like that on the outside of the hull. Not that it really needs it in my opinion, but I'm guessing your a bit like me here and some things you just can't leave alone no matter what.

Re: 2000 Starcraft Starfire 1900 refurbish

Thanks Jason, I think I'm going to keep the original paint on it has some dock rash that I'll touch up, but I'll have to tow the whole boat to an automotive paint shop so they can match it and mix me up some of the same color, hope that works I'm partial to green and I really like the shade that it is right now, also it kind of matches my motorhome green and white.

Re: 2000 Starcraft Starfire 1900 refurbish

Sounds good to me John. If I can offer up a suggestion to ya... you may be able to call the manufacturer and give them the vin number on your hull. They may be able to give you a color code. You could then get a body shop to mix it right up for you and I bet it would be near perfect match.
The painters in the autobody shop I used to work at did it in a similiar manner. They just had a computer program that showed them every different color the needed to mix and match the vehicle they were spraying. It would actually mix by the weight value of the amount of colors needed to get the right tint, if that makes any sense.
But again, I guess that all depends on if Starcraft can give you a color code. If not a code, I'll bet they can get you a dang good starting point and maybe you wouldn't even have to tow it to the shop.
Again, just a suggestion.
