Yeah, if it hardens up in your lungs, you're not going to be doing much 
sailing. Ever. My boat was brush painted by the perviousl owner with Pettit 
one part. Looks ratty now but it lasted 15 years and I would say it passed 
the 5 foot test for any evidence of having been brush painted. I might want 
to use a two part next time around, but I would definitely brush paint 
following the commonly known rules: vertical strokes in sections, finish with 
foam, paint the sunrise side first early just after the dew is off.
