Just repainted my boat, turned out ok. Would like to see if anyone else has gone through the same thing.

I've never heard of someone repainting their boat. Why would you paint over the gel coat? I'd like to see some pic's of this.

What would a person expect to pay for something like fuels nautique, but just painting the stripe and not the deck. My nautique has badly faded and I was looking for answer.

Jason,

Here are pics of mine. I had just the stripe repainted and the rest reworked. I believe I was quoted $1500 for that work, though I am not sure b/c my total bill was higher, but had a lot more work done.

Here are some pics of my last Tige. We repainted the stripe and widened it a few inches. PPG makes an awsome marine grade paint with a 10 year warranty. It looked and worked awesome. It was painted because the old stripe was faded and buffing it out didn't work.

What brand paint did you use? How does it hold up with putting the boat on and off the trailer?

Nice picks of the boats guys. I did the ski nautique into an Air nautique myself. Check it out.

my gel coat is already alittle messed up... basicly i want to redo the whole hull(underneath and everything) in red or black... how would i do this? is there a chance i could really screw anything up? would i be better off taking it for someone else to do? also how would i remove the current decals so it could be painted?

to get the decals off u can for to a hardware store or home depot and pick up a heat gun or a little steamer works well also. warm up the decals and peel them off as u go. u might might an adhesive remover also. u can get that at a napa or auto value. i flipped my boat over on a snowmobile trailor to do the whole bottom. i hard alot of damage to fix so i flipped it, u probably dont need to. i added some pics of mine flipped over and with the damage one after it was sprayed with the gel coat and one after i buffed the gelcoat. not sure of the order of the pics when they atttach but u can get the point
