If I wanted to paint the side covers on my Abu Garcia 4600 what would I have to do?

I think the sides are aluminum.

Get some wet sand paper, scuff it up some, the real fine grit stuff. Let it dry. Then seal it with a coat of water tight acryalic glue... Then, and this is key, go throw the dam thing in the nearest lake or pond, a creek will do, and get a Revo.

Questions?

Those of you who are thinking about painting your tackle should be sure to use automotive paint and clear coat. Regular spray paint will scuff right away. I painted some Abu red reels and had to redo them. Even automotive paint will scuff off unless it is baked well.
