Re: Any suggestions on painting the inside of an aluminum boat

Is it currently painted? Any bare aluminum needs to be hit with a light coating of self etching primer. I'd go with Rustoleum products. off-white, gray, or light blue would be what I've most commonly seen as the painted interiors on those little tinnies.
