Re: My 185 Project

I ended up doing the door jams in Zolatone along with the floor because my interior white doesn't match my airplane and its a high traffic/wear area. Turned out really nice. I had hell with the Zolatone clogging up my paint gun. The stuff is hard on paint guns in a bad way. I would suggest buying a inexpensive one, I found a 30 dollar one on amazon that was the proper tip size, Anyhow here are some pics.

Re: My 185 Project

Did they require a 5 gallon minimum on the Zolotone? Paint your aluminum boat too.

I ordered one gallon, they didn't say anything about a minimum. He did tell me I didn't need anything special for aluminum as far as primer goes and to only sand it with maroon scotch-bright, which according to the website an label is incorrect. Over all I'm really happy with the way it turned out.
