Update,
Today I sanded the hull. I will not be able to use the midnight blue pearl but at least I can continue with minimal loss of time. After some research & advice from the pros, I am using Rustoleum oil based grey primer to prime the hull. The hull took to the primer so I am back in business. Once I post this, I am going to a few stores looking for dark blue oil based spray paint. The color I am looking for is either Flag or Navy blue which would have been the color used on the original vessel. So much for my idea of using a fancy blue!
I think I mentioned this before, but this boat seems to dictate to me how it wants to be built & not the other way around![sm=50_50.gif]
