That was my other concern. The boat has allot of chipped spots, but the paint is adhering great! So it may be a feather and seal kind of job! think.gifcustomtouch said:If you are not removing the moulding, then stripping the boat back to the original gel needs to be reconsidered also. I would probably try to work with the existing paint surface because stripping up to the rubrail without removing it will be next to impossible to make it look right.
