Winter projects - doghouse and leaning post

[flyingfrizzle]

I like interlux products but the Bilgekote is a one part paint that will flake after a few years. I mention using it once and many stepped in to change my mind. Some say use gel coat with a additive for bilge applications and others say coat it with epoxy resin. In mine I coated it with left over epoxy resin then 2000e epoxy primer then sealed it off with a 2 part epoxy paint. I think either will last longer than the bilgekote. It is a good chemical, gas restant paint but lacks the strength of 2 part product. I wish interlux would come out with a 2 part epoxy base coating that was designed for those conditions.

Does anyone know if I can use Interlux Bilgekote over epoxy/glass? Or does it need to be primed first? Any alternatives? Looking for something quick and easy for the inside of the fish box I just insulated.
