Our kits contain 1 gallon base, and 1/2 gallon for stencil colors. This will generally cover up to an 1860 aluminum boat inside and out. If you're putting turf down on the floor and decks, you can paint an even larger boat with the standard paint kit. We recommend doing 1 base coat, then go over high traffic areas (floor, seats, rails, etc) with 1-2 more coats. Stencils only need 1 coat. No need to paint the bottom. Just paint as far as you can see.
Emply boat of all loose items including gas tank, battery, etc...
Rinse all dirt and debris build up out of the boat.
Wash boat with dish soap to help remove oil / grease / gas.
Remove any loose paint.
Scrub boat down with a Scotch Brite pad or equivalent.
Soak rag with Acetone and wipe down boat.
Tape up any items you do not wish to paint.
Paint base coat (be sure to cover high traffic areas such as floor and side rails with 2-3 coats).
Apply stencil starting on the front exterior area of the boat. Once finsihed with the exterior, move to the interior. To speed up the process or for those of you who plan to paint more than 1 boat, 2 sets of stencil are recommended. This way, when one stencil is soaking in cleaner, you can continue to paint.
KEM® 400 Enamel is a general purpose, short oil alkyd, flat enamel. It is ideal for interior and exterior application for OEM finishing or refinishing of industrial, construction, and agricultural equipment, as well as a wide array of general metal applications.
Reduce with Xylene, R2K4 as needed up to 15%. For more flow and open time, use Aromatic Naphtha 100 Flash or Aromatic Naphtha 150
Flash. Use Toluol for faster flash off and in cooler temperature.
Only bare aluminum needs primer. If you're priming an entire boat, our primer kit works great. If you're only doing a small area, pick up a can or 2 of self etching primer from Lowes/Home Depot.
Standard stencils are 18" wide by 26" tall. XL are 28" wide x 28" tall. Standard is best for people who are painting their boat without help. If you have an extra set of hands you may want to consider XL stencils. XL stencils will allow you to cover more ground and complete the job faster. That said, any boat can be painted using standard size stencils.
KEM400 is a specialty product line from Sherwin Williams. Not many stores carry it. That is why we offer it here on our website. KEM400 has been used for years and has a flawless record. That is why we continue to carry it.
There really is no science to holding the stencil against the boat. Bottom line, do the best you can. Take your time. Also keep in mind that no paint job is perfect. You will not notice a little bit of blurring when the job is complete. Here are a few pics to help.
All kits, besides the 9x12 DIY kits, include stencils and directions. The directions will tell you what the suggested colors are and in what order to apply the stencils. Stencil kits do not include paint. Paint must be purchased separately. Paint is available here at redlegcamo.com, or you can call Sherwin Williams to order directly. Their number is also in the FAQ section. Ordering directly may speed up paint delivery.

Redleg Camo Stencils are 100% solvent proof! We recommend using xylene or paint thinner to remove excess paint from the stencil. It is best to fully submerge the stencil in a plastic tub and let it soak for 5 minutes. After the stencil has soaked for 5 minutes, lightly brush the stencil with a soft bristle kitchen brush or similar tool. Just be careful not to damage the stencil.
If Sher-Clear clear coat is sprayed in high humidity, it will absorb moisture and make the boat look white. Once the moisture evaporates out of the paint, it will clear up. Heat will speed up the process. We suggest leaving the boat in the sun to bake. Depending on your local weather, it may take several days to clear up totally.
No. We do not have a store front.
No, Redleg Camo does not paint boats. However, we can assist you in finding a painter that will take care of you.
