painting a 12 ft aluminum seaking

[jerry101]

got all the sanding,priming,sealing,ready for paint ,the color i'm thinking on using is : gloss royal blue rustoleum oil base paint,,,,,the color i'm hoping on getting if i can mix this white paint with : is a sky blue, the problem i'm having is i cannot get a white rustoleum in gloss,the question i have is : is it possible to mix flat white with this blue , to make it sky blue or close,or do i have to keep looking for gloss white? any help would be appreciated ...thanks

They make the white in a non flat. It will mix with the blue. I used the blue right from the can on mine and it is holding up well after 3 seasons.

If they're both oil based it will work fine. Just won't be as glossy. Check the My Flamingo link in my signature below I think you'll like the color of my boat.
