Re: camoflauge my boat???

I see a camo'd boat sitting in some guys yard all the time. It is an early 60s 16 ft fiberglass what-u-ma-call-it. He obviously used spraypaint, and you can see that he did nothing below the waterline. I would say that you could do the same thing, just rough up the surface with an orbital power sander and some 100 grit. If you ever scratch it, just whip out the rattle can again.<br /><br />Here is a pic of my old beater Subaru I bought back in 98 for a work/winter car. My other car was a new Ford Probe GT, which got totaled by a Ford fullsize truck (which is why I own a fullsize truck now). I got bored and did a rattle-can camo job. I used to be in the Army, so it was appropriate. The pattern I used is typical of US Army camo for temperate environments. What I didn't know at the time was that a lot of white supremesists had camo rigs up here, so I repainted it sunshine yellow. No one yelled at me wanting to kick my butt anymore after that.<br /><br />
