montgomery wards 12 ft

[aburke120]

Did some work for an guy and he gave me a 12ft montgomery ward tin can. The boat has sat outside upside down for a long time, and needs cleaning. the inside was painted at one time and doesn't look too bad, but the outside is nasty. What can I use to clean this boat up. Thanks

Pictures would allow us to see what you are dealing with and allow us to offer the better suggestions and ideas.

With that stated, my adult son bought a boat once that was aluminum (kind of like a Bass Tracker style) but totally camouflaged with different colored paints, even the engine. He used paint strippers and such and removed all the paint. Then he bought the original decals and applied them and it looked great. A lot of elbow grease, but it really came out very nice. Just a thought.

If you are loading from your computer or smart phone, you have to keep the picture size under 700kb or they will not load. So if you're trying to load larger pictures, they will not work.

chore boy and elbow grease finished the job, on to something else.

Looks nice. Are you going to let it bare or any paint in mind?
