Re: what to use
I am in the process of paiting my 18ft. Fiberglass boat. I originally bought Interlux as I was painting the bilge (just 1 qt), I thought it was OK.<br /><br />Since I have purchased Pettit Easypoxy topcoat, which can be left in the water below the waterline for up to 48hrs. I also used the Pettit #6149 undercoat. I am very pleased with the finish, you can brush or roll. They recommend rolling and tipping. Roll out the paint, followed by "tipping" out the roll marks, use a good brush for tipping, you don't want hair from the brush getting in the paint, also stay away from nylon bristles, they don't give a good finish (my oppinion).<br /><br />BTW, I paid about $85/Gal of topcoat and $75 for undercoat.<br /><br />Hope this helps.<br /><br />Cheers.<br /><br />emp.
