Got bored today and painted the interior of my 14' Starcraft. Wow talk about nooks and crannies! I used my leftover brightside that I tinted to a light grey and my leftover chromate primer. Came out okay.

Actually I was waiting for a motor part and needed to be occupied.

Looks good. Better than sitting on the couch all day watching Fear Factor reruns.

A new paint job always looks good, and it looks great. If you get bored again, you could always refinish the wood seats.

Yes, I have stripped layers of ugly paint off two of them (you can tell) and decided that gettting them down to clear would would remove too much. I actually sanded all 4 and oiled them just for a protective smooth splinter free finish.

Re: Got bored today

What kind of wood are your seats made from? you said you "oiled them" Unless its teak, you might want to give it about 4 coats of a good marine urethane.
