    I really enjoyed the video. If you could be so kind and tell us noobs the steps you took. I want to know what chemicals you used to clean and get the paint to stick to the plastic in a good way

      Hey bud sorry I just saw this. I commented this on the other guys question so I’ll copy and Paste. So in a nutshell, clean it, sand it as smooth as you can. Like I went from 750 Grit all the way to 2000. Then I used rustoleum enamel primer and paint. Oh and look up the rolling and tipping method when you get to painting. It’s been well over a year now and honestly it’s still holding up remarkably well! Some spots are missing but nothing bigger than a couple inches. And also I wouldn’t bother painting the inside if I could do it again. It’s not worth it and you’ll peel the paint when you use it.

    chris - just purchased a used kayak with a bit of wear and tear on it. I've watched you video several times and really enjoyed seeing you go thru all the steps to making an ugly kayak really attractive.
    question - would you be willing to create a simple bullet list of the steps you went thru and a materials list? I'd like to give my Wilderness Tarpon a fresh look - right now it's a drab deep green. Anyway. Thanks in advance. Matt - Orlando, Florida

    There’s no way some watcher is not going to put that hot spoon on their tongue. You’ve forgotten z Murphy’s Law. Btw, great easy explanation, but dumb is as dumb does! I wish you had shown dipping the spoon in the water to cook off…my wish is for all the toasty tongued repairers.

    Do you have to sand it before painting?

    • @misery13666
      @misery13666 Před rokem

      Yes, then prime it using a primer for plastics. otherwise it would just flake right off. especially with the plastics used in rotomolded kayaks, they are made to be chemical resistant. Same types of plastic used for 55 gallon drums that can hold acids with no issue. any other way and it simply wouldn't stay on.

  • @justinweier4099
    @justinweier4099 Před rokem

    That was an incredible amount of work for a finish that won't last more than a season or two at best. Honestly kind of lost me as soon as the bondo was applied to the boat. Bondo (and most paints) doesn't bond properly to the type of plastic kayaks are made of. Having been on the other side of this (cleaning a boat that misguided person painted)...it's a mess to clean back up and do properly (sand and buff the boat back to a decent finish). If you don't like the color of your boat; sell it and buy another boat.

    • @misery13666
      @misery13666 Před rokem

      There are paints and primers made specifically for plastics. Using the right materials there'll be no issue. The bondo on the otherhand I completely agree. It'll last until a scratch hits that area and water gets in, then it's done for.
