It’s a little late for the tip but I use a thin plastic drop cloth and cover up the spots I use the paint stripper. I stick the plastic to it and it doesn’t evaporate nearly as fast and the stripper penetrates way deeper in the paint. I also use the pressure washer to wash it all off.
While I absolutely love krylon fusion for plastics, Rust-Oleum is a far superior paint as far as durability and not fading over time. This is coming from a graffiti artist with years of experience with different paints and seeing trains we paint come back around years later...rusto looks good, krylon always faded away.
I'd like to know how you kept all of the paint stripper sno't off your driveway? And next time to get your decals off use a heat gun to warm them up once you get them started they should peel right up as long as you keep them warm.... And yes I Work with vinyl often
And if you will notice, by turning your carpet different ways during the install, the carpet fibers take on a different look, when, facing different ways, almost to the point of looking like different shades of color. Notice bolt in the lids and front deck from back deck. When you start, keep all of your carpet, laying the same way. Good idea to draw arrows on the back of the carpet, facing one way, that way you will always know which way the front of the boat is in relationship to the carpet you are working with. Doing that will make all the carpet lay the same way, and it will all look like the exact same shade.
I just put some pour foam into the front of my boat and would like to know if it is ok to add some Quad Foam OSI to a few small areas to fill up a few areas where the water could pool up on top of the pour foam? Thanks
I’m waiting to paint my boat until I get my vehicle situation figured out because I also want it to match my truck. Once I sell my truck and replace it I’ll paint my boat.
For removing stickers try a stripe eraser. Mounts on a drill used on slow speed will roll them right off. Used to sell them when I worked in a body shop supply store. Customers really appreciated them for their time savings.
Dont use that paint . use alumaseal its marine paint made just for jon boats comes in jon boat green and grey. Already has the primer in it and made just for aluminum jon boats. 65.00 aprox and it will do the whole boat. Only need reducer to go with it and spray gun.

Use a rubber eraser wheel for decals, won’t touch the paint unless you press too hard.
You inspired me to do a complete restoration to my boat. I have leaned so much from your channel and appreciate all you do. Keep up the content

Thank you sir now I feel more confident in using rusto on my little whaler
Definetly agree. Rust OLEUM is the real deal. Holds up very well.
How many rattle cans did you use on that project.
I painted my 16 ft Starcraft with rattle cans ...looks great . Main thing for good finish is prep and cleaning surface .
How many cans did you go through? Thinking about rattle canning my john boat.

Great vid 💪🏻🇺🇸
How do yall fell about using bed liner on the bottom of a jon boat to help seal and protect it or would it be better to leave it bear?
Use GLUVIT two part epoxy instead.
How long you leave paint stripper on?
Denatured alcohol can remove stickers and adhesive residue in many cases. Be sure to test it won't remove other things like paint you want to keep.

Would you prefer the krylon in this video or the automotive enamel from first video.
The automotive
I’ve got a 4 x 8 cnc table and 4 by 4 laser engraver with a 14 ft John boat. Give me ideas, already going to laser stuff onto Eva foam for my seats

is this the gregor alaska?
Do you have a good source for a boat cover? Thanks
A boat place,
Mike how many cans of paint did you go through to get it painted that way?
Goran Borsi I used about 3 of each color ...except for red only 1 can . Scotch bright and cleaned hull real good . Good luck on yours be patient.
Use either a heat gun, heart dryer, blowtorch, or rubber eraser tool for decals and any vinyl. That way you won’t destroy the shit out of your finish.
Thank you
Hey man do you have any advice for a person that wants to build a boat in the future???
@@TinyBoatNation lol yup

I used the wheel when I worked for the Border Patrol. Removing cop style decals was a big job and the wheel made it cake...
When r u gunna make a console from scratch
what happened to the ultrex
Looks like you need to invest in a heat gun for your decals.
Dont use that paint . use alumaseal its marine paint made just for jon boats comes in jon boat green and grey. Already has the primer in it and made just for aluminum jon boats. 65.00 aprox and it will do the whole boat. Only need reducer to go with it and spray gun.
Next time use a heat gun. It should losing up the glue from the stickers.
wd40 to remove stickers
It weakens the integrity of the hull, where did you come up with this crappy information? Are you a scientist? Not.
