Post painting an aluminum hull
I am looking into repainting my aluminum duck boat. Any specific paint is best to use? Should I use something specific to seal after I paint? Any suggestions are appreciated.

TIA

Duralux Aluminum Boat Green. No primer needed. Just use a wire wheel to knock off the old paint and scuff the hull. Then wash the whole boat down with white vinegar to etch the aluminum. Let it dry then paint.
