Answer 1

Year doesn't matter that much. You can get paint at any marina or marine supply shop such as E&B. Dupont Imron is a good paint for brushing, rolling or spraying on. The most important thing is proper surface preparation, sand it well and clean off the dust with a good tack cloth. Also, temperature is important too. Read the paint can directions for ideal temperature range before applying. Too cold will cause problems.
