Painting a 12' Alum V-Hull
 
Got a little alum v-hull. Doesn't look pretty. How difficult is it to paint a boat like this (inside & out)? Any ideas/suggestions on what paint I should use? I only use it in freshwater.

I have a small alum job too.I spray painted the inside and it lokks good, I painted the bottom for the salt, but.....I would also spray it for the sweet stuff!

I have a jon boat that I painted over 12 years ago. I brushed on rustoleum on the outside and sprayed the inside. The outside looks good but the inside needs to be done again.

i would use interlux it migh be a little more money for the paint but worth it this paint is like steel and last forever baot cleans up real well due to the type of paint it is bait and sea grass doesnt etch into it

I had a very old 12 ft aluminum v hul that had layers of old paint on it. I stripped it down to bare aluminum replaced a few rivets, primed and painted with interlux and it looked like new 3 years later when we sold her.
