How to determine what type of paint is used on a boat
I just bought a used fiberglass boat, a 23 foot Bayliner Trophy, but I
cannot determine what type of paint is applied on the bottom. It looks
like it is ablative paint. But how do I determine what type of paint it
is?
Or should I just scrape off the paint, sand it and then apply a hole
new buttom paint?
I am asking you guys for help as I cannot get hold of the previous
owner and just ask him.
Thanks

| Seeing that you cannot get hold of the previous owner I would choose a
bottom paint that is advertised to be able to painted over any existing
bottom paint. Interlux has a number of them. http://www.yachtpaint.com/usa/ Make sure you properly prepare the surface per manufacturers instructions
and you should be fine. |
