I am currently converting a Lowe 1436 jon boat to a bass boat and the first step is to strip and paint this jon boat. I've never painted an entire jon boat before and I wanted to experience what it's like to sand the jon boat vs using a paint stripper. At the end of this video I will share with you my recommendations based on things that I learned threw this process. Watch as I take you step-by-step through the boat prep to paint process.

Nice job! If you do it again you should cover the wet stripper with plastic (drop cloth, garbage bags, cling wrap..) Keeps it from evaporating and it works MUCH better. Once covered, you can put it out in the sun. Good idea to leave it on longer too. You use a lot less stripper and you can take pretty much all the paint off with a plastic scraper and hose.

Looking good . That is how it usually goes with me , spend a bunch of time working on a project only to find another way that takes a portion of the time with better results . Got to love it . LOL

you do clean quality work, you didnt post all of it but man was this hell of a lot of work i bet. thanks for the video bro

@BassBrothersFishingDMV 5 месяцев назад

It was a ton of work. I'd go paint stripper first next time to speed things up

What stripper did you use? I didn't see it listed

@ericbommer2280 Год назад

My son did a paint strip of a truck bed using "Strip & Clean Discs " on a 4 1/2 girder. I was amazed at how fast it worked, how long they lasted, and how well they work. After his experience i would not use sand paper again, it clogs up way to fast. Another great video, thanks

@BassBrothersFishingDMV Год назад

Thanks.

@thomasneal7126 2 года назад

How well any stripper performs is all based on how long the paint has been on your boat and how well the surface was prepped before paint was applied. If the paint is rather new or the surface was not properly prepped and it never bonded good, a stripper can usually do a good job. Paint is like concrete the longer it cures the harder it gets. Have you ever tried to drill a hole into 50-year-old concrete? You can burn a drill bit up pretty quick and not make a dent. I had a 1972 Jon Boat that stripper (and I tried them all) would not touch no matter how much I used. That original 50-year-old factory paint was basically welded on there. I just sanded with 80 grit to rough it up and painted over top of it. It has worked out great. It has been two years and the paint is still bonded.

Same deal trying to get the paint off my 11'9 Appleby. Crazy work! But it feels good! Steady as she goes! 😊

@Matt-nf9my 11 месяцев назад

Dude no lie I have a 1969 tried stripper and air craft remover. About how much paint like perfect wise you got off before priming and painting? This has been a nightmare so far

@hammer9856 2 года назад

If you have an older boat with lead based paint most of the strippers on the market won't cut it (lead based paint is also a bear to sand away, not to mention the toxic dust). Commercial grade aircraft strippers will also work (just ask you local aircraft mechanic what they use to remove lead based paints). In their industry they can't compromise the aluminum. I also saw a vid from TBN where he used heavy duty oven cleaner to remove older lead based paint. Seemed to do the job. Just remember to wear the proper cartridge respirator mask because of the lead and the fumes (also don't do this indoors). Love how well the stripper you chose worked on the modern non-lead based paint on this boat. Clean and easy. Looks great with no loss of the aluminum. Great job!

Found your video tonight. I'm getting ready to bring home a new to me jon boat and I'm thinking very seriously about giving it a cool looking paint job. I've done it before, but it's been a while. Great video and great instructions. Thank you! Subscribed.

Thanks man. Welcome to our channel

@dorantes0106 2 года назад

On mine, I applied orange stripper, covered it with plastic over night, scraped most of it in the morning. Electric pressure wash the rest, came out great! Also tried sanding first, never again. Sand after just to smooth out. Acetone at the end.

@dorantes0106 2 года назад

Electric pressure washer I bought on let go for 60 bucks. Still use to this day... Two years later.

@BassBrothersFishingDMV 2 года назад

That sounds like where I landed in the process minus the pressure washer I don't own lol.

@duanetaylor1526 2 года назад

Great video. I have only done a minimal amount of removing paint but I’m with you about using paint remover vs sanding. I enjoyed a lot of the subscribers feedback too. I’m looking forward to the next video to see you paint. Thanks again. Tight Lines!!!

Definitely!!!🤙🏾👍🏾

@CliffordMaxfield Год назад

Personally I like to lightly sand then use Citrus stripping. The sanding allows better penitration

@TN-Vols-Fan 2 года назад

Naeem, Great job! I wish I lived near you, I could have helped. Back in the mid 70's, 80''s to the early 90's I built and raced stock cars. We used paint stripper and acetone for doggone near everything! You can use sanders and grinders, but why. It's like you basically said, you can get the same results with a lot less labor!

@BassBrothersFishingDMV 2 года назад

Yepp. Exactly. Interesting story. Thanks for sharing.

@miltonbrown7275 2 года назад

You did a great job... I used this and airplane paint remover on mine... one thing to add, make sure you use a face mask next time... it's alot of chemicals and dust that comes off the boat when sanding and especially using the paint removal... but other than that you did an awesome job.. can't wait for part 2

@BassBrothersFishingDMV 2 года назад

Thanks man. Part 2 coming soon

@danscholes9132 2 года назад

Nice video. Maybe this is a silly question, but couldn't you paint over the previous paint with certain kinds of paint?

@BassBrothersFishingDMV 2 года назад

You can but may not always have the best results. Imperfections in the original paint job may show through the new paint.

@danscholes9132 2 года назад

@@BassBrothersFishingDMV thanks, just curious. I'm enjoying your channel.

@peterc504 6 месяцев назад

What would you say is the fastest way to sand old paint to make it smooth enough to apply a new primer and new paint over the primer? I dont need to strip the paint down to the aluminum just smooth it enough to apply a new primer/and coat of paint. Im debating on either using an orbital sander with rough grit, regular grinder with p36 disc, or a 4400 pressure washer with sand attachment? I want the fastest possible way to do it?

@BassBrothersFishingDMV 6 месяцев назад

I prefer the orbital Sander because ot allows me to control how much pressure I put on the existing paint. Speed is one thing but the end result is most important. Never used a pressure washer with sand attachment so I can't speak on it. P36 disc might be too agressive.

@peterc504 6 месяцев назад

@@BassBrothersFishingDMV this is a work boat. There might be 3 layers of paint... So I need to get to the last coat.. I just want the fastest way before I go buy the tools..
