Ok, so i'm not real impressed with Rustoleums boat paint. Heres what I did:

Sanded the panel with 220 then 400
Washed with mild soap and water
Dried
Wiped down with mineral spirits and let dry for 2 hours
Wiped down with tack cloth
Applied paint
Waited 48 hours

The paint started flaking right off. I guess I will try the professional series unless anyone can point out a step I did to cause poor adhesion.



You didn't mention whether you primed or not. Does the boat paint require a primed surface?

I thought that was another difference between the brightside and the regular rustoleum; The Rustoleum adhered to bare metal but the brightside required a primed surface.
