Hello Mountebanks,

This might help you it was on page 53 of part 2 from a member called Ground Rat,

Here's the link to the page if you wanted to go back:

He stated the following:

"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. "

Cool truck by the way, It looks like a good starting point for a decent DIY paint job. My 67 Mustang was pretty much a dead horse when I got it. I was able to get it running and driving down the road...did neither when I bought her. I took the molested body and redid it correctly. After all that who can afford thousands for a paint job? Not me anyway. Let me know how your truck turns out.

Thanks
