A quick weekend, some elbow grease, and a couple hundred bucks in cleaner, primer, paint and she's looking good. It was not at all as hard as I believed it would be. If you're thinking about it - just do it.
Purchase list
Had a power washer - super easy - don’t get too close and keep on 30+ degree.
50 pack of green scouring pads. - used like three.
12 pack of painters tape - used 3
Total boat dewaxer - wiped a couple spots - didn’t really use it. May pay for that.
Total boat thinner - needed it. - paint got thick as soon as the sun came out.
Total boat topside 1 part primer - gallon and a quart for 34 footer - used it all
Total boat 1 part paint white. - purchased gloss unknowingly but now wish I ordered flat. Had a gallon and need more for second coat.
12 - 6 inch closed cell Foam rollers - wish I had smaller ones as well. Used most.
Foam brushes - garbage
Good brush to get around stuff - perfect
Half a day to prep. Half a day to prime. A day for one coat of paint. Need one more half day for second coat.
Neck gaiter since the back of my neck was burned - should have purchased.
I am by no means a professional at this but worked well enough.
I will also be recaulking as soon as it all dries.
