Painting Ski
Can you the paint the bottom of a ski. If so, what kind of paint? How to prep?

Re: Painting Ski
My advice would be not to touch the bottom of your ski. I think the manufacturer has probably figured out the best way for the bottom of your ski to work and messing with it will effect how it rides.

Re: Painting Ski
At least some Goode skis were released with a factory-painted bottom, and they sell (or used to sell) repair paint for the do-it-your-selfers.
Historically, Goode skis have performed pretty well, so you might be able to apply what they used without harming your ski's performance... or not.
I'd try asking them at http://www.goode.com

Re: Painting Ski
A good quality Black Satin paint works just fine on Goode Skis.

Re: Painting Ski
Goode uses SEM satin bumper black. You can buy cans of it at your local auto parts store.

Re: Painting Ski
I skied on a Goode that the bottom had been painted with this and I thought it skied fine.
Life is great! Enjoy every minute!
