Default Re: Gel coat or AwlGrip

Chris,

We're spraying Interlux Brightside one-part poly on Thursday, having primed and sanded insideand out. Final decision after much waffling is Saffire Blue hull sides and blue-glo white inside. We have talked about 2-part almost exclusively on this site and I was ready to go with Interthane Plus. After finding it difficult to work with on the console and considering UV resistance, gloss life expectancy, etc., I dropped back to Brightside as it's a trailer boat that will be stored inside for the most part and may see 60 days in the atmosphere. Around here, that's 40 sunny days. I feel with good maintainence, It will last for 6 to 8 years. I've never kept ANYTHING for 8 years except my wife and 2 girls...

The primer REALLY showed the anomolies and poorly prepped spots so we're being careful to perfect the prep stage. I'm SO stoked to see the finished product, but it takes alot of patience to not be in hurry to get it done. Images will follow soon. This is the scheme we're going for. Cool huh?

Otto
