[Public-List] Hull painting

[Gordon Laco]

Hello again - 

If you use Epifanes two part polyurethane, you can do a better job that spraying by rolling (no tipping) yourself.  Or you can have a professional roll it.

How badly damaged are your topsides now?

I have done Checkmate several times with a linear urethane roll and tip, in black (shows the most imperfections), for labor (mine and Karen's) and a few hundred dollars, and have been happy-but I am not a perfectionist. It's about time for another go (it's about 15 years between coats) and am reconsidering the urethane thing. This spring I painted another boat (a center console) with brightside. It's nicely shiny, less complex application, and touching up is simple, if it comes to that. Brushing liquid made it flow out, it looks sprayed.
