Im looking to paint a little p-row I have and I was wondering what method would allow the paint to stick to it best? Its metal and I have spray painted it in the past but the paint doesnt hold up as well as I would like it to.

It's all about the prep...clean surface and primer. But seriously you should take it to stumpknocker and be done with it.

Spray paint ain't gonna last. Before painting though remember these words....."you got to rough the motha fuka up first."

I can prep, and paint your boat cheaper than you can buy the paint and materials ,,, just sayin, but with that said,, you have to scuff it up really well , pressure wash it , degrease it, and then wipe it down with acetone

Prep, prep, prep. Clean that sucker first then use a quality self-etching primer. Spray paint will stick to that. My old boat has held up for 8 years now with good prep work, a good primer and spray paint.
However, next time I'm calling Stump. Spray painting a boat is a pain in the ass (with cans...paint sprayers are great)
