Aluminum Boat Paint Green is a vinyl-type product which exhibits excellent adhesion to aluminum and galvanized substrates. There is no need to prime raw aluminum, thereby cutting labor costs in half. Its semi-flat finish provides less drag on boat bottoms than conventional flat marine paints. It washes easily and resists oil, gasoline and discoloration from harbor gases. This aluminum boat paint is ideal for Pontoon and House Boats when used in fresh water and bottom paint is not needed to stop growth, but you still want to protect the bottom! The perfect aluminum boat paint!
