I only painted the hull, The primer I used is the same primer you use with
Interlux Brightside polyurathane. I  rolled and tipped  the Toplac. This
paint is very forgiving   it is self leveling and does not run. The finished
job looks sprayed and has a deep luster to it. I'm currently rerigging my
mast and I will be using Toplac
on it as well.
