Paint prep

Today I started sanding down the underside of the tub to be primed and painted. The aluminum tub comes out of the box looking like a Coors light can, smooth and shiny. In order for the paint to adhere you need to scuff up and sand the surface. This makes very tiny scratches which is what the paint will stick to. If you do not sand the paint will flake right off.
