Zyrex bottom paint...Anyone familiar with this?

[pbolden]

Hello Everyone,

Anyone familiar with Zyrex bottom paint? They make some large claims about the product. I called them twice trying to get more info but got a home style answering machine instead. Also, their website isn't quite ready for prime time, if you click "application centers" there are none (huh). Seems like a "Mom & Pop" operation whipping this stuff up in their basement... Anyone used it?

Thanks,

I used it on a 40 footer about a year ago.

Follow the directions to the letter. Do not put it on too thick or it Will run. ( Basically just like rolling and tipping paint using the 'roll/backroll' method)

They are a mom and pop but very nice and helpful. Just leave a message and they should you back.

Thanks YD. I'll be very interested to hear your opinion after a couple of seasons of wear. Are you seasonally wet slipping? I see that you're in Michigan...are you on one of the Great Lakes?

Anyone else had any experience with Zyrex?
