Transom Paint

Looking to strip the old tired varnish off my D Class and paint in grey to match the rest of the boat, any tips on getting a good result and what’s the best marine primer/paint combination to use? Thanks

Danboline Bilge paint in grey worked great on a transom I did once.

Speaking to the man from International at the boat show, he suggested to use Yacht Primer and Toplac. He said that whilst long term immersion in water will cause issues, short term will be fine.

Dries to a nice slightly satin finish, easy to apply and covers well. Chemical, oil, fuel and water resistant.
