The Rendezvous was bought
asa disposable hull but a very good buy compared to fretting over banging more expensive glass hulls
The hull is a difficult to see dark maroon, difficult for me and rescue squad so a repaint to red and white. The tech questions are what paint, what prep ?

Paint early for painting a vast array of gouges decreases gouge repair using resin.

First inquiry brings a tossup between Rusto Plastic and Krylon. Is sanding necessary or will an alcohol wipedown suffice ?
