Hi Everyone or Anyone.
 
I have a few questions about painting an aluminum boat in 2006 I bought a 2001 17.5 FT Lund Fisherman used from a guy that, well didn't take the best of care of it. I have found more then a few problems with the boat and have been slowly fixing them. But I am now looking to paint the boat as there are some really bad corrosion spots / Electrolysis area. from where there were stainless steel screws and such. Anyhow I just striped the transom to 99%  bear metal. There's few very small spots of paint still on the transom I couldn't get off just yet. ( RAN OUT OF TIME TODAY ) I used a paint stripper and 150 sandpaper and a dremil for those hard to get built areas. There are a few holes I need to fill in. So that's my full scenario at the moment. I picking up some self-etching Metal Primer, Its maker type and number is Interluv 353 VINY-LUX PRIMESWASH BASE and 354 VINY-LUX PRIMEWASH REDUDUCER. I have the tools to spray apply this product. But I was looking for some opinions on this Primer. Found this forum and thought Lets see if one of you people could tell me if I'm doing this right, and if I have the correct primer also id this a wet wash primer after I apply it?
 

 

So in short am I going in the right direction? What do I need to do? Can i paint over this primewash or do I need to put the Primewash on then another primer and then the top coat?
