I lightly sanded the kayak, then primed and painted camo to use duck hunting. I have used it the past for ducks, but always had to fully cover it since it was red. I thought by painting it I could actually hunt from the yak if I was in deeper water.
After priming I made a stencil by cutting shapes out of a legal size hanging file folder. It held up well and I used it over the entire yak. You can buy the licensed camo stencils if you want to go fancy with it, but all this costs was about $30 or so for the paint and primer which was all in spray cans.
Here's the finished product. Hopefully we'll have some ducks to take pictures of Saturday morning.
Sanding and painted the bottom to test how it stuck (decided the top will need primer)

Primer (Spray primer made for plastic )

Finished Job

Damn, son. Didn't know you primed it and used stencils. Way to do it up right. All we need now is the ducks.....
