In Response To: Re: Bilge Paint (Mike Dolan)

Mike,

Again, surface prep is the key to anything adhearing to it... For bilge surfaces, first degrease with a citrus engine degreaser & scrub brush, then pressure wash with a strong concentrated grease cutting soap, followed with a good rinse and drying. Final step 10 minutes prior to coating with whatever, is to wash the surface with denatured alcohol, being sure that all of the alcohol has flashed away before coating.

Br,

Patrick
