Use zinc oxide paint is the only paint to use on aluminum. You will miss to ruff up the old surface so the paint will stick.

Do you paint a boat trailer the same as you would an aluminum boat?

You can graze or spray any paint. The key is in the prep work (cleaning and sanding).

The boat is a 1979 17ft aluminum Crestliner. Lots of days in the sun faded the paint. It is currently red and chalky and I think I will keep it that way. I don't need it to look like a show boat or anything, it's a fishing boat. I really don't want

Use a RO (by chance orbit) sander with a medium grit (150-ish) paper to sand all of the surfaces and give something for some new paint to stick to. Don't be too forceful or you'll be looking at the aluminum

Clean the surface with wax/grease

The boat is exactly silver aluminum on the outside. But how much would it be to paint it? Is it possible first of all. If it is what am I lookin at to paint this. Just the outside not the inside.

Don't paint an aluminum boat. It's too much line.
