Aluminum boat paint color

[vtk]

In many of the aluminum boat painting threads, Rustoleum is used in most cases, but colors don't seem to be mentioned. I seem to find only black, aluminum and white Rustoleum. Please reply with other available colors, and where to purchase.
Thanks

Not sure where you're located but...You might want to check the last link in my signature line. It has some good info on painting your boat.

Didn't Henry Ford say that you could have your Model T in any color you want, as long as it's black?

My local hardware store has Rustoleum in the whole rainbow of colors.

Rustoleum can be tinted to more than 100 colors.

With the Rustoleum or Tractor Paint or ANY Acrylic Enamel Oil Based paint, you can mix your own colors using the small 1/2 pint cans and using teaspoons and tablespoons of different colors to get the color you want. Google up the color you want and how to mix it with what colors and then go to work. In less than an hour you'll discover the formula for your custom color and then you can buy the appropriate colors and mix your paint. That's what I did as have many others here on the forum. You can also use Acrylic paint that comes in Tubes from the Art Supply store if you just need a quart of custom color paint. Find out what Base color to start with and then buy the tubes of the other colors you need to tint the base color. It's really not that hard to do.

Rustoleum topside marine paint is available in a number of nautical colors.

White is the right color.

White is the right color.

Amen jigngrub.

I've got Rust Stop from Ace hardware tinted. It's Rustoleum re-branded. I went to an Ace last night and they told me they don't tint Rust Stop. Not sure if it's just that store or all Ace Hardware have stopped tinting their Rust Stop. Check and see.

I'm getting ready to paint the Sea Nymph. The kid has his heart sset on red, we'll see.
