I lucked out and bought a 16ft canoe on ebay for a $100. I made an offer, and they took it.
It’s not in the best shape ever, but as I plan on slapping some tape and using it in a swamp I’m perfectly fine with that.
I picked up some Styx River paint in Mud Brown (the actual name) and put on a base coat.
I was hoping to get away with using the 1 quart but I think I need to get one more and put a second coat on. It 95% covered the blue, but I figure now is the time to get it done. If you look you can see some of the blue coming through from below.
So i bought another can of paint and did a second coat. After another coating the base looked good. I called it quits here for now, but plan on using some black spray paint to mist on some grassy silhouettes.
The paint I used was Styx River “Mud Brown” because where I hunt is a very muddy, well, brown.
