    Can anyone recommend someone to do Awlgrip paint blister repair work on an Aluminum vessel? The boat will be in the water so looking for a mobile independent type outfit.

    Unless its a small area or can be sealed off, most reputable painters will not paint in water because of the contaminant possibility?

    These are small blister areas on the topsides, very easy to mask off and contain while repairing. Wouldn't pose any threat to the water

    Call Danny (Mod edit: Number Removed. Use PM)

    I can not recommend him highly enough.

    Very good, very fair rates.

    And he does in water work.

    Comes highly recommend by Johnny at Gold Coast Paints. And he sees a lot of painters. :)

    Painted my entire, 78 ft, all aluminum boat. First class work, on time, on budget and I am a very picky engineer.

    I wouldn't think Luo marine would take a small window blister job. I could be wrong but I bet they won't touch small stuff.
