I BOUGH THE PAINT FROM BOAT OWNERS WAREHOUSE HERE IN FORT LAUDERDALE. I GOT 1 GAL PRIMER AND ½ GAL CATALYST WITH ONE GAL OF SNOW WHITE AND ½ GAL CATALYST FOR IT PLUS 2 QT OF BLUE MIST WITH ONE QT. SIZE NON SKID SOME TAPE AND MIXING STUFF FOR ABOUT $650.00. I WOULD HAVE TO CHECK FOR THE EXACT AMOUNT. REMEMBER WHEN YOU BUY A GAL YOU ARE GETTING 1 &1/2 GAL. TOTAL PAINT WHEN YOU MIX IT TOGETHER. I USED ABOUT ¾ OF A GAL PRIMER TO DO THE INSIDE OF THE BOAT. I WILL BUY ANOTHER GAL OF PRIMER I AM USING THE OFF WHITE PRIMER AND CATALYST. I DON’T REMEMBER THE # ON IT I THING IT WAS THE P 1000 AND U 1000 NOT SURE BUT IT IS IN THERE BROCHURE. AS FOR THE APPLICATION IT ROLES ON VERY WELL I DON’T CARE FOR THE BRUSHING APPROACH AND ONLY USE IT IN PLACES THAT THE ROLER DOES NOT FIT INTO. WHEN YOU USE A BRUSH IT STREAKS IT AND THEN THERE IS MORE TO SANDING. BUT WHEN YOU ROLE IT ON IT GOES ON PRETTY WELL AND THERE IS LESS TO SAND AND YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE TO SAND. OH BY THE WAY IT IS REALLY EASY TO SAND OFF NOT LIKE EPOXY MORE LIKE CHALK I USED 220 GRIT PAPER AND IT WORKED GREAT. I JUST DID A LIGHT SANDING ON THE NOW SKID AREA BECAUSE YOU WANT THAT RUFF ANYWAY. ON THE REST OF THE BOAT I SPENT MORE TIME TO GET IT SMOTHER. ALL IN ALL I WAS HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS AND FEEL LIKE IT CAME OUT PRETTY GOOD. WHAT EVER IT COSTS IS A LOT CHEEPER THAT $5 TO 6 GRAND.
