Default Re: so which paint

Awlgrip is the way to go. My brother-in-law here in NC does alot of painting. He sprays everything. I have watched him paint a dozen boats and I am not sure I could do it myself. There is a technique to it that I guess comes from experience. I swear when he sprays the paint on the boat, once he gets the first cover coat on the paint looks like it is going to run at any moment. He says that it pretty much is getting ready to run but that is how you get the popped out of the mold look with the paint. He uses what ever paint the customer wants but he prefers awlgrip. He paints the green strips on the NC Wildlife Parker Boats here and they use a cheaper paint that he doesnt like at all. It doesnt flow out good or something. Fellowships boat looks really good and he said he rolled and tipped. May be a thought. I would be scared to tackle spraying my whole boat by myself.
