All steel boats are painted. Some(most) alu boats are painted.
In general, all boats are painted, including fiberglass and wood.
Over last 20 years, average re-coat intervals are about 10 years, at
very low cost due to ease of prep for steel hull.
Its an easy process, that does not need anything special-
Primer, filler (opt) barrier coat, top coat.
