Thanks for all your help. I think I have decided to take your advice and paint it. Do you have a brand of marine paint to recommend ? (Immron, Awlgrip, etc.) Also should I use the epoxy primer first or just paint. I will clean and lightly sand prior.

ok, I have decide to paint and have bought the supplies. Started the prep and cleaning this afternoon. I am going with Rustoleum Topside paint. A friend of mine use it on his sailboat and it looked pretty good. I am hopefully going to get it done this week. I will post before , during and after pics. Thanks for your help

I have cleaned and sanded per Paint manufacturers instructions and have the roof ready to paint. Hopefully get it done in the next few days. Will post pics if I can get things to cooperate.

After first coat. Looks AWESOME. I can honestly say that the top looks new and matches the sides very well. Will post more pics after the final coat.

Thanks for the help Midniteoyl. I am very glad I took your advice. Sorry for second guessing you. It really turned great. Even better than I was hoping
