Paint my Propeller?

[Cameron]

I have a Sensenich metal prop for my Acrosport II. It is the usual grey color. It would look a whole lot better if it were painted to match the airplane. I've searched around on the internet, and as usual, there seems to be alot of varied opinions on it. I was planning on chemically stripping the old paint, then using an epoxy primer with a urethane, single stage, top coat, just like I have done on all of the aluminum sheetmetal on the parts of the airplane that I have painted. I also thought about using Alodine, instead of the epoxy primer. I think that's what the prop shops use most of the time.


Anybody here ever had any experience with this?
