I do believe I'm gonna like this stuff and if I have to recoat every year or 2 so be it. I'll be repainting and touching up my hull every couple years anyway because that how I roll. It was really not a big deal to prep for and apply it. I didn't originally paint the bottom of my hull to begin with so it was not very labor intensive. Used some 60 grit flap wheels on my grinder which took what little paint off I had to with ease. I then went over the whole area where to give it something to bite on. I got the filler and used some of it on a couple decent hooks I had first. I was afraid that it would be a pita to spread and roll by the way some folks talked. However it is like thick paint and is pretty self-leveling. A gallon covered my 18x48 twice and then some. Actually I covered 16'x48" and then went 4" up the sides. I mixed it in 2 batches of 1/2 gl each. Pretty straight forward on the mix and you just need to measure both parts out equally. After alot of stirring I just poured it out over the hull and came back with a plastic trowl and spread it all around for a couple minutes as evenly as possible. Then I rolled it with a foam roller made for oil based paints. No fuzzies.
I repainted the exterior and let it dry a couple days and put it back on the trailer this afternoon. In the past, once my boat was on the trailer it was there. I could bow up on it and fuge it an inch or 2 but that heavy mofo wasn't going anywhere. Now I can put one hand on the winch stand and with little effort shove it off the trailer with the other. Pretty damn slick. I have the Boatbuckle transom straps on the back but I am going to pick up the bow tie down also so this thing don't end up laying in the middle of the road somewhere.
Giga you can get some tint coloring that you can mix in to it.
