Default Looking to paint my v-20 cuddy.

Hey guys,

It's been awhile since I posted. Anyway I'm seriously thinking about spraying my 76' (whole boat). I am thinking of either pale yellow of sky blue with off white above the rub rail. Has anyone ever seen a colored V-20. I think it would look sweet. I started filling a few holes with west system and cabosil today. The weather has got to do some warming up before I can do much painting. Let me know what ya'll think.

reelapeelin,

What type of paint did you use? How about prep work, holes and stress cracks? What did you do for non skid? Thanks

Check out CB's gallery in V20 center console. There is a yellow one. I prefer stock white with flat black trim! Bill Mc ;D

MJ -

My next topic is about what type of deck brush to use and what color ropes should I tie up at the slip with!!! :P


Shicks,
I havent seen a painted V20 in any color other than white. I would side with the pale yellow if you got the window frames powder coated white.

Don't get me wrong, I'm about as hardcore a fisherman as anyone, But............................................... .Aint nothing wrong looking good while your doing it. This whole piant idea has kind of escalated. I started off pulling the old Evinrude off the back for a quick "shave and a haircut" paint job, and I was also going to paint the deck. The next thing ya know I'm talking about spraying the whole boat, who knows. Sometimes you got to say.............WTF. I really like the idea of powder coating the windsheild frame white, sounds original.
