Inflate the boat to recommended working pressure. Thoroughly clean the fabric using Rib Revive and cleaning pad, ensuring you get into all crevices and corners. Prepare the tube surface to be painted using 100grit sand paper. Degrease the area using acetone for Hypalon boats or MEK for PVC boats. Using a brush or roller apply a thin coat of inflatable paint. Two coats maybe required for a higher quality finish. Wait 3 hours between coats. Allow 24 hours for the paint to cure before use.
