[Public-List] Interior paint

[Bob Norway]

Lowe's sells Rust-Oleum Exterior Gloss Marine Paint. I used it in my cabin
after I tried to burn it down (that's another long story). Anyhow, after
having a massive clean-up done, then recoating the top of the cabin with
West System, I painted it, and other portions that only needed cleaning,
with the Rust-Oleum. That was in April 2010 and I can count on one hand the
times I have had to wipe 4 or 5 spots of mold off in those 4 years. Also, my
boat is located on the Space Coast of central Florida and I don't use
anything to control the humidity in the boat.

Cheers,
Bongo Bob Norway

I'm pretty sure that when I bought Candy Cane, the underside of the deck had
been painted with exterior latex; It's been holding up fine for the last 9
years, and when it comes time to repaint, I'll probably use more of the
same..
