Well... this low water can get anyone; it got me putting the boat on the trailer, 2019 Yamaha SHO 250, 21 fx skeeter.
The prop sucked a rock off the bottom and screwed up the skeg. Off for a repair at the local prop shop who has a good rep for this.
When I got the prop and the LU back, both were fine except the paint on the Lower Unit.
So, unfortunately, I have to repaint the lower unit. Clearly the guy used the blue as the last coat, it looks like crap.
Since it looks like a 5-year-old did the paint. I need some advice on sanding it down with what grit paper.
I know I need to prep it correctly to get good result. There is some, (what I would call pitting) spots on the paint
where it looks like a piece is missing. It reminds me of someone who painted over a missing chip on the house paint.
Paint, I have the two colors, Blue the first coat then the black second color. Which gives that dark blue almost black color.
I asked at the boat shop and they said it didn't need a primer.
So do I take it to the metal, or just sand it down till I'm past the pit mark?
Thanks for your advice!
