Thanks Ernest.
Here's after one coat of Rustoleum Professional. Same as used in the Youtube Video. It went on nice, looks plenty good. I didn't touch primer, just went right over it while clean. No sanding.
I'll probably let it dry 48 hrs and put a 2nd coat on if I think it needs it.
Now I have to see if I can buff the cover up a little. If not, I'll hit it with a coat of clear.
Here's a link to top coat.

I won't have it in the water until Nov. 1, so it should have a good time to cure out. I'll keep you posted as to how it's holding up after a month in the water.

I left the zincs in place because I plan on replacing with all new once I get down South. No one has them in stock here and the ones available on the internet didn't match part #'s exactly. I'll just take boat to dealer in town once I get there.

Doug
