want to paint my boat

[great gricey]

I have a 1962 Lone Star Biscayne and it needs a facelift. I want to paint the top, sides and bottom but the paint that is sold as "Marine" seems to be extremely overpriced. Someone said that they used Rustoleum enamel - but can I paint the sides along with the top with it? I want to paint the whole boat gloss white. I know I need to use bottom paint for the bottom. Oh, by the way, the boat is fiberglass.

Re: want to paint my boat

Gricey you only need to use bottom paint if you are going to be leaving the boat in the water more than a day . I am using Rustoleum exclusively on my boat and it is turning out great . Actually several of us Starcrafters are using Rustoleum . Feel free to take a look at my boat in the link in my post . once at my thread the most recent pictures are in the last 3 or 4 pages . One good thing is you wont have to use Zinc Chromate on yours since its glass .
