I'm looking to paint my 16 ft jon boat. We are going to be putting a blind on it and duck hunting out of it. What is the cheapest way that we can do this? Product suggestions? Process suggestions? Does it need to be primered first?

Get acid etch paint from the paint store, it sticks way better.

I thought about doing this as well. My boat is kinda seafoamy green. I was about to go get all the supplies then I thought about it. With the camo material on the blind, there is no reason to paint it other than for looks. The blind covers the whole boat. IMO if your boat isnt white or an odd color, or in just seriously bad shape (mine isnt pretty), save the time and effort for another cause.
