Pimp My Tinnie - Part 2
This video is a bit of fun -- more of a video blog than a tutorial. In it I paint the cowling from the Green Machine and add a few decals to it. My original plan was to Vinyl wrap it but a few tests showed it wasn't going to give the look I was going for so I ended up pulling out the rattle cans again.

Keeping it Green, like the genie, I see what your doing there, LOL, just playing, but the Green Machine isn’t playing it’s real man, so real.

I'm loving the neon green spray paint and the spray painted 150 on the side. I would have never known that it was only a 50hp.

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

I know, that 150 was so convincing. I should have put it straight on eBay. ;)

awesome video, keep them coming

@alexeveleigh6980 3 года назад

Awesome stuff dude. Real helpful for new boat owners!

@johnnybravo123ab 2 года назад

At first I thought that was one ugly color combo, but after install it complements the boat perfectly 🤩 This madmax project made my day 😁 Love ur vids 👊🏼

Thanks mate!

@kevin48800 8 лет назад

cracking job thanks for the video

@DangarMarine 8 лет назад

+Kevin Jenkins Thanks mate, it was quite fun this one. People still ask me what sort of outboard it is! ;)

@gogs1468 7 лет назад

I know this is quite an old video, but, has inspired me to do the same to my Yamaha 50 outboard

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Go for it! Not only do you get to make it distinctively yours, it much less likely to get stolen once it doesn't look factory. ;)

All toys draws blood from you from time to time...😁

@darrenmole8915 7 лет назад

Hi Stu, I'll check the reed valves today and let you know how I get on, thanks for the help mate, but I maybe picking your brains a bit more on this one if that's ok👍😉

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Good luck, and sure.

@TheRodbond 7 лет назад

lol......I painted my 130 Honda outboard for the 2nd time the other day......did a quick job the 1st time and it didn't last 2 yrs......(forgot clear coats).......did again with a great primer.....real Honda paint...(spray cans).....and 5 coats of clear..(my spray gun).....just taped off my decals, but looks .....just awsome !!! Sanded with orbital also......

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Hey Rob, a good primer makes a huge difference, as does the clear coat. Glad to hear you are happy with the results! :)

@lasse4312 7 лет назад

Hi Stu, I'm a longtime follower and love your channel - best outboard advice on RU-vid by far! :-) Your videos have helped me out many times! I'm posting here because if you ever get a chance, I would love a video on painting an outboard lower unit. Mine could use a paint job and I'm clueless as to which technique and type of paint / primer to use to get lasting results. If you ever get an outboard in the shop that needs a lower unit paint job, please share some wisdom! Keep up the great work, it is greatly appreciated! Cheers, Lasse

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

+Lasse Hi mate, glad you've been enjoying the channel. Paul and I are painting his lower unit at the moment. Put a picture on the DangarStu Instagram account for you. Can post a picture of the primer for you too.

@darrenmole8915 7 лет назад

Morning Stu, I'll check the linkages when I get on it again, in the mean time, I'm waiting on a new water pump kit coming, I dropped the gearbox off after noticing a lack of water from the tell tail and found the whole water pump is shot.

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Hey Darren, glad you spotted the pump was shot, always good to get that replaced before any overheat occurs!

@galliente4829 5 лет назад

With the diagonal cutters..... clean the concave part with acetone.... then fill the concave part with the rtv..liquid .gasket maker...smooth out... let dry hard overnight.... then get a razor... split down the center of the diagonal cutting pliers..... so they open and close .... when u cut with them next time they will catch the pieces and keep them from flying when u cut with them.... neat trick.....

@DangarMarine 5 лет назад

Nice idea! :)

@hp3453 5 лет назад

Wasn't sure it was you.....didn't see a beer anywhere.. :)

@darrenmole8915 7 лет назад

Here's some incentive, if I get this engine going as a direct result of your excellent advice, I'll buy not one, but two t-shirts👍😁😁😁😁😁

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

You're on! ;)

@soundsnvisions 6 лет назад

Wow! Going thru your videos (like a Breaking Bad marathon) and came across this jewel. It's cool to see the progress you've made (mainly on the audio side). Keep it up. I get something from every video I've watched.

@davidholmes4225 8 лет назад

Another fun video. Ever think about doing a video of the top 25 nautical terms. Your reference to a sponson in one of you knot videos made me think of this. Background: I was on a friend's sailboat and he asked me for a "sheet." I had no idea what he meant. Just a thought.

@DangarMarine 8 лет назад

+David Holmes Hey David, nautical terms is a good idea. The nice thing about it is it would be a chance to get out on the water again and film outside. :)

@TheNachotime 7 лет назад

hey Stu. I'm looking to remove old vinyl letter from my hull. what is your recommendation for getting vinyl off gelcoat? would the heat gun be too aggressive? as of now, I'm just using a plastic paint scraper and elbow grease.

@androperic5045 7 лет назад

top video mate. where do you get the rubber seal for the cowl.

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Pretty much the only place you can get them is a dealer for your brand of outboard.

@mitch_the_-itch 3 года назад

The perfect paintjob, when painting Oranges and the Green Machine, lol. What Outboard Mfgs charge for the Stickers perfectly exemplifies the entire industry. They are colluding to fix artificially high prices. Why arent they called on it? The ONE thing Govt should be doing, lol. I can get a blueprinted 350 chevy for half the price of an outboard, lol.

@darrenmole8915 7 лет назад

Hi Stu, I've got a 9.9 Suzuki 2 stroke that has been submerged, before this it was a great starter and runner, but now it's hard to start and it'll only run for a minute or so before cutting out. I've cleaned it, new plugs, new fuel and filter etc, I've even put a brand new carb on it (a small fortune). I've tested the coil and I've got a good spark. Could you please tell me what to try next? Either that or I'm on the next plane, engine in hand and I'm dropping it off at your door😁😁😁😁 Thanks in advance pal👍👍👍

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Hmmm, given that you've put a brand new carb on I would have expected it to be running pretty well. Did the reed valves behind the carburettor look to be clean and sealing well (no light visible around them). Bad reed valves will cause hard to start every time.

@gringofirst8052 6 лет назад

I follow your video’s with interest and I enjoy them. May I suggest that you use also ear protection when working with electrical tools otherwise you’ll end up like me..... half deaf !

@DangarMarine 6 лет назад

Yes, more and more I've been throwing the ear muffs on.

@darrenmole8915 7 лет назад

Stu, just a quick update on this 9.9 Suzuki , I removed the reed valves and found someone had been there before and fastened one of the plates upside down an jammed one bank of valves shut😐, so I put everything back together and the engine starts no bother now😁but, it only runs for a couple of seconds and dies😕. Any ideas matey ?

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Hmmm, interesting that they had been messed with. Did all the valves good in good condition when you turned the plate around? Also, are all your linkages good now the carb is back on, ie. choke is completely open when not activated?

@michaelthomas9992 4 года назад

That black and green looks like shit with the gray Yamaha. Your soldering iron and your batt charger may have green paint on it after that benchtop spraydown. Lol

@savmarjanac1627 4 года назад

Looks like a teenage mutant ninja turtle or the hulk.

@Rspri10104 7 лет назад

Pump up the volume Can't hear you.

@DangarMarine 7 лет назад

Too late for that unfortunately.

I won’t bore you by showing me remove staples…. 5 minutes of removing staples ensues.

Can't hear an effin' word he's saying. useless !!!!

@DangarMarine 9 лет назад

Older videos did have bad audio. Have a new external mic now that is much better.

@paps69shed 9 лет назад

+Bruce Twyman Maybe you can find a you tube tutorial on using a volume knob? This guys channel is a gem and I for one am extremely grateful for it !!!!

@DangarMarine 9 лет назад

I think you could try a heat gun if it has an adjustable heat. Start really, really low and see if you can soften the glue a bit without hurting the gel coat. If not, you could try a bit of car paint grease and wash remover to help dissolve the glue.
