Can I also paint the bottom of my Starcraft aluminum boat with this? I need a white color. Thanks!

1. I don't think this is the right paint for aluminum or at a minimum, you will need a special "aluminum primer" paint (I think Rust-Oleum makes it). 2. I think for a boat that will stay in the water for much more than a typical 12 hour day each time it is used, you need professional equipment and paint to do the job, probably best left for marine shop.

Yes you can. I have used it on the bottom of a aluminum v bottom and my fiberglass covered wood boat and it holds up just fine. I don't leave them in the water though. Been on both for two years now with no problem

This paint is not for below the waterline use. It's a tough paint though and if your boat is trailered and not kept in the water for extended periods it might do okay. I'd contact the manufacturer.

The color will hold very well. I did the inside of my aluminum jon boat and it still has great color with some pretty heavy use. There is not much gloss to it but I mixed with a flat paint. The bedliner was very easy to install with the supplied air gun. Overall a great product.

This stuff is amazing in very small spaces. I used it on metal (aluminum) for a drift boat hull. It is very viscous and difficult to spread evenly. I would suggest using the two part epoxy garage floor paint. You can usually find it any major store like Lowe's or Home Depot. I would not use Coat-it or Gluv-it on a floor. It would be a nightmare to spread evening and it doesn't look good when it's finished. I didn't mind because it was on the bottom of my boat and it really help make it slicker in the water and on rocks. So, in short, its awesome when used in certain applications but I think a floor is not one of them.

I would say that I do not know. Might be easier to select another finish than to paint. The manufacturer or distributor might be able to answer this question.

Yes, they are paintable with water based paint. They can be used as an acoustical barrier and white is the only color.

I have and it worked great. Patched a spot on aluminum boat over the rustoleum and apllied paint again to top coat it. No problems at all

Yes, you can use on virtually any paint. It's a very good wax, durable, and easy to use. If you are looking for a wax that will make your metallic white paint really 'pop', consider "LAVA Luminous Glow Infusion" Chemical Guys WAC310 Lava Luminous Glow Infusion - 8 oz.

you should use buffer,much easier than by hand. it removes a lot of oxidation. boat a boat wityh the sides all chalky white. within a couple hours, boat sparkled.

...i suppose it would be, although i can't say we considered it...probably the Krylon paint would work?...sorry i'm not more help...but we needed white...

It probably can but why would you want to hide that nice wood finish? Also, there are other models just like this yhatvare alrdy painted, i think white is only option.

A friend and i just did a project and where able to get a bright white. I am not sure if or how much the color you will be covering impact the final outcome. Ours was a fairly light shade of tan.One note on the tintable already being white. That is what we thought as well. Shot one of the bottles before we realized it was not covering with any real color. Added the paint per instructions and achieved a great white finish.

Sorry, no. I only have the one boat and it's white. You'll probably have to buy a whole new boat.

I used it on the bottom side of my 14 ft aluminum fishing boat and it worked fine. I painted over it as well.

The exterior is brushed aluminium type, if I were to try I would make sure to prep the areas by sanding with 100 grit or finer so that the paint would adhere. I have not tried this though.

Excellent coverage - I thinned the stuff 4 to 1 w/ mineral spirits & a quart covered our 26' sailboat's bottom, including its deep, huge bulb keel, as well as the tip or our rudder. The Rust-oleum got really high scores in a comparative test w/ better known brands & so far, we've been really pleased. We applied two coats from a 2nd can because the paint was so cheap - there's still approx. a pint left over in the 2nd can. I applied the paint w/ a long fiber "fuzzy" roller & the job was easy. Good luck, you'll end up w/ a really hard coating that's almost like a flat finish gel coat.

I cannot give you an answer because I used it with a primer and only used this paint on some hardware for drawers from ikea. If you can prime the aluminum, I would assume it will be fine. Btw...the hardware I painted had a bit of a matte finish to it already too. The gold color itself is really nice. Sorry...

I would think so. I used it on a boat below the water line and it still looks white after a couple of years.
