Boat painting - DYI - Professionals-paints

No more drunk sailors on the weather deck.
Spill some Vodka, bye bye high gloss finish.

I think I will polish up my old weather deck.

Talk to Interlux/International Paint about the Pro Version of Perfection. Mads used it on Sail Life last fall and he was quite happy with it. Apparently it is a new version of Perfection

WARNING! DIY has limitations. I painted the deck, including non-skid. Roll & tip....tip & roll...brush & brush...ect. Rustoleum marine primer followed by Rustoleum marine white....Nonskid = Total Boat nonskid white mixed with beige. (1 part paints) You can see finish isn't even, color isn't consistent, & leaves almost a camo kind of look. This is a non professional job, removed as much hardware as possible...then taped off rest. I'm not that bright of a guy....followed Boatworks today prep. Doesn't shine like the marina professionals ($24,000 est.) would have done. ..doesn't look new....far from good...good from far...far from $$$. (few hundred dollars & lots of time) Good luck.
