Default Re: paint

If you are planning on spraying then I would use one of the following paints, PPG Concept or Imron or Awlcraft 2000 but not Awlgrip here's why, the Awlgrip is not able to be sanded/buffed and is not easily repairable in the future. Basically you spray it and walk away. If your going to use it make sure you have a tip not bigger than 1.0, .8 is better because it atomizes the paint better. I like the PPG Concept, once buffed it has one of the best finishes with the deepest shine. It is easily repairable. The Imron is similar but a little harder to blend repairs. It's been around since the 1970's and they now have a new marine formula so it is proven. The awlcraft 2000 the complaint I have with it is that it's not as hard as the other 2 and the shine doesn't last as long.
All of the above paints are not recommended below the water line for the same reason as awlgrip but, I've used them as long as you don't leave the boat in the water for more than 1 day. As for color all of them can be mixed to whatever color you want.
