[Public-List] Question on paint colors

[Michael]

I went with off white (Y4381) and it seems to serve. Added flattening 
agent (YMA715Q) and non skid finish ((2398CQ) over the diamond pattern 
at recommended amounts. The non skid worked out real well, I don't know 
if the original pattern was worn out, or not effective to begin with, 
but visually the non skid is not noticeable and grip is way improved, 
especially when wet. Painted the diamonds 1st coat, then over everything 
with the 2nd. I don't know if the flattening agent was worth it or not. 
Numbers are from Jamestown catalog, but I think they are Interlux 
product #s.

>I would recommend getting a brochure or catalog with the paint "chips" from Interlux and from any other brands you're considering. Any marine store that carries the paint should have them.  There are too many different variables unrelated to the paint that can change how a color shows up on a computer screen.

>Also, the brightest white might be too bright, similar to the sun reflecting off the snow on a ski slope.  When Skybird's mast and boom were painted they used one of Awlgrip's many off-white shades for this reason. I don't think Awlgrip is the best for doing the deck though, and I don't know the Brightside colors well enough to recommend a particular shade.
