VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to Video 3 of the Project Wilson Series. Painting a Jon Boat has not always been easy. It took a lot of trial and error to make it this far, and having a paint guy in the group helps tremendously. There is a complete playlist available on this project on my channel. This Jon Boat to bass boat conversion started off with some new paint. First we sanded down the boat using 220grit sandpaper then 320. Frankie from Piedmont Custom Fab did some aluminum welding on the holes that were in the boat. Chris from ATF Hydrographics sprayed the One Hit Wonder Paint on the Jon Boat. This video goes into depth on the paint prep process as well as the actual paint job itself. Thank you to TBNation or Tiny Boat Nation.

Im excited to bring yall the subfloor video! Let me know what paint color you would go with??
That roach scurrying in the beginning 😳🤣
Boat coming along nicely.
Thanks guys 👊
looks great, if you want to be precise with the countersinking for the flush rivets grab a microstop and it can keep those depth great. going to restore a couple john boats and my child hood boat , thanks for the info !
Great job looking good can't wait till next video drop
Thanks Randy
Yeah oh yeah
Did y’all use primer before painting
Looking good man.
Thanks bud, hope your enjoying it!
Great video 🇦🇺
Thanks Scott!
Im gonna asume the paint didnt hold up since you didnt answer any questions about primer and how its been holding up
Hi! How is the paint 8 months after? Because you avoided using etching primer before painting. Thanks for sharing!
Same question
@@buenaondaoutdoors967 Same question.
@E21 Life is still holding up
Same
Bulldog contact adhesive works the best for the bunks and carpet
Ah good to know, thanks Chris. It just didnt seem to like the oil based enamel
Sweet.
Is 5440 the weight of your truck, boat, and trailer?
Yeah it is, the boat and trailer were around 800
Do you have plans for the bottom of the boat? Plain or Gatorglide? Dang, that's was a lot of prep work. Great job and love the color. Trailer looking fresh too.
멋지네요
very nice video
Before you buy 3 quarts of paint compare prices vs a gallon. I'm a 30 plus year professional house painter. My guess that it is nearly the same cost to get a gallon as it is 3 qts
No Etch primer on aluminum ?
I don’t know how many times I’ve seen others paint redo they’re boat and forget the trailer
if it rolls it goes
parallel to the side of the boat
Bro, 🔥
Looks great! What kind of paint did you use, and has it held up?
how did you determine the "reference line" for the side rails? measurement from the bottom of the boat?
I imagined the boat finished and where I ideally wanted the deck height to be
Do u have to clear it ? I have seen a few he has done . I am interested but don't have to have to clear it. How long is this stuff lasting ? If it has been proven to last then I would do clear but seems like alot of work compared to other boat paints
Yes, but no primer
So, with drilling the holes through the side of the boat and then riveting the side rails to the I side, any issue with water coming in through the rivets? Sorry, I've never worked with rivets before
Great question! No simply bc they are above the waterline. There is a chance they will allow a little water in but it wouldn't be for long
@@fireantfishing thank you for taking time to reply. Am planning my project now, and it's difficult for me to plan. Older model Lund WC14, not exactly flat in the bottom, subfloor is going to be way higher than I'd like in order to be flat/level, I'm sure I'll have several more general questions like these!
Is this considered a riveted jon boat or a welded jon boat? Because I see rivets holding the ribs in under the water line?
I saw your buddy at 10 seconds.
Guess who's back...back again...
Hey Nat, that was my Tenant.
He was behind on rent. So Ryan just evicted him 😆
😂😂😂😂
What did you use after the ace brand rust stop paint ? I have a brand new trailer and wondering how I can paint it for it to last.
What size is the countersink bit? Looks like 3/8” or 1/2”?
3/16
Use treated wood on bunkers.
Seal it up
Why do you need to countersink the rivets? Don’t they come with a flat head anyway?
Standard rivets have a head with a 1/16” (about) rise to them. When you lay something on top, this can be seen or raise a specific area, depending on what your doing
No primer? Just paint paint? How does that boat look now???
Haven’t seen the boat in a while
Nice work. What kind of paint did you use.
Thank you! One hit wonder
Any reason you didn’t use pressure treated wood for the bunker slides?
I thought the same thing. I always do for that. I'd never use straight pine no matter what primer or how much applied
@@austinartist0608 I just think about bulk head pilings. They are always made of pressure treated wood.
What kind of paint was used is what everyone wants to know.
The sanding and stripping the old paint part really sucks. I’m on my 3rd Jon boat restoration and I really hate sanding lol
No primer??
No need. The paint does not need primer
why did'nt you use a paint gun?
Amazing what you can do with a shit load of money
Amazing how much money you will have if it's not spent on dumb shit.
6 min into an 8 min video and then you start talking about paint??? Change the title!
