Hi, i just purchased an old gheenoe that needs to be repainted. I've spent the last several hours searching how to prep and am still confused. The boat has old paint with clear coat over it on the sides and the paint that used to be on the bottom is all scraped off.
Before I sand the paint on the sides do I need to clean them with something (lacquer thinner, acetone?)? What method do I use to sand, power sander or hand or both? and what grit do I use. Also what do I clean it with after sanding?
Sorry if these are dumb questions that have been asked before. Thanks for any responses,
Mike
