Ducks are painted - looking fine

Thanks for the input.

I ended up priming the lead ducks with a special "galvanized metal primer" and spraying them with car "rocker panel" coating.

The ten little duckies have been very helpful - with any luck the new hull I have been working on should be floating by the weekend.

Oh Nick, I had to settle for beige - they were fresh out of Teal.
