[QUOTE="Savant, post: 190428, member: 546108"] You can spray can it if you are very careful and patient.. use primer first (a filling primer is recomended for fiberglass, to get the surface filled in.. a few coats, sanded between).. For good spray-painting, you want to keep the layers light.. don't get it too heavy or you will get runs that are a bitc.h to get out.. put on each coat, then sand (wet sand toward the end) till smooth... To get it shiny, either use a 'gloss' paint for the last few coats, or apply a laqure or gel coat (maybe several layers, wet sanding between).. that should give you a very nice finish.. Or, take it to a shop, but depending on size, get ready to drop some coin.. [/QUOTE]
