Aluminum Boat Painting

Looking to get my aluminum gator-trax re-painted or sprayed with Line-X. Any suggestions on where to go? (around BR)

I'm thinking bed liner on the bottom is a definite no-go. Too much friction. How big of a boat are we talking? Is it already painted? Painting inside and out?

Agreed that bed liner is a no go for the bottom. Its already painted, most of it has rubbed off over the years. Its a 17' by 60" just would like to get the outside from water level up and through the inside all the way to the floor.

John Cooper over at Line X of Baton Rouge. He sprays them all the time.

I don't know if you are a do-it-yourselfer but bed liner is about the easiest thing to spray your self. Order the Raptor bed liner kit and it comes with the gun.

I got mine done at LA Boat Worx. Right outside of BR, but they did awesome job. Price really depends on what you want done (camo, solid color, clear coat, etc.).

sand it good then use self etching primer on the bottom and repaint it with epoxy paint
for the inside use roll on bedliner like herculiner and mix in some white paint until its a light gray color
