    Tube Jig, the paint has held up good so far, although I have only been out 4 times so far. I had to chunk all the paint that came with it because they were all different brands and were gonna be hard to match. I called Cabelas and they gave me a $40.00 credit for the paint since it was advertised to come with all Krylon brand paint. I ended up using the Krylon Camo colors sold at Home Depot, Lowes,etc.. I also lightly sanded the entire boat before I painted it and wiped it down with Mineral Spirits before I painted it.

    Mine has held up well. It has faded and chalked some but the boat was painted probably 10+ years ago. It also sits outside exposed year 'round.

    There was no paint kit when I did mine. All that you got was the stencils. I used a base coat of mud brown camo paint that I bought at a local hardware store and rolled on and then used regular spray can Krylon with the stencils.

    thanks guys, I have an aluminum skiff and I have been eyeing the stencil kits for a while. Was hoping to hear how it holds up and it seems to be fine.

    Thanks, TJ

    Looks as good as my factory job and a heck of a lot cheaper, I'm sure.

    I figure I got less than $100.00 between the stencil kit and the paint(after the rebate from Cabelas because of the wrong paint issue).
