      How should I match the paint to original color ? Is there an OMC number that is known ?
      Or just maybe take the tank and try and match the unfaded shade on the underside .
      Paint type suggestions ?

        The Speeditwin name was used for several years, and the paint color varied with the year. What year or model number do you have?…Then someone can recommend.

                Ok , I assume if I take any aluminum down to bare metal I would need to use self etching primer first . Correct ?
                What do you guys use to clean the oil and crud off the motor. I’ve painted a few boats here and there but haven’t painted a motor yet ..
                Any special prep work I need to do ?
