I am looking at my Bravo drive and the paint is starting to come off.. At first I thaught it was over heating, but when I look at the fluid it looks brand new, also I felt the drive after running the boat WOT for 20 minutes and itissnot hot at all...I have a stock 502 mpi in a 272 baja. I run 70mph everywhere I go. I have 450 hours and the drive oil still looks good. But the paint is strting to come off 10 years old.... what paint should i use to fix it or should i have it serviced and re powder coat it?

Zinc chromate primer on bare aluminum and mercury phantom black on top.

Good call on this because you are right, This paint set up works and looks good on the drives when done. X2

I hope you don't mean 450 hours on the same oil!!!!!!

I also had to look twice at what he wrote. If true, hey Mr. Baja-----only paint coming off? Consider yourself LUCKY.
