8.7 Aluminum Hulls

For aluminum hulls, use 80 grit sandpaper, a grinder, wire brush or a Dual Action sander to scuff the entire mounting surface to remove all coatings and oxidation until the Seakeeper Ride Controller area is a rough surface with no impurities for the approved two-part adhesive to adhere to. Please be sure to follow the adhesive manufacturer’s recommendations for primer and other surface preparation requirements on aluminum hulls.
