....on this 32 year old S2...just painted my top sides today as the weather was just right for the single stage polyurethane enamel (Delfleet Essential)......i sprayed it with a Bink's 2001 suction qt cup gun at 50 psi in 70 deg weather with 58% humidity......this is PP G's version of Emron.....
it sprayed very well ...and i only had 2 small sags about 1.5" wide....these pics are about 1 hr old and the paint has been on the boat about 3 hrs now so some curing time will make it even smoother as it self levels over the next week and hardens up...it has three parts 1 the paint its self 2 an accelerator 3 the hardener ...hope you like this out come....this is not some thing i would recommend for everyone but if you can spray enamel and are good for the prep work its well worth it IMHO.....you will see i didnt win the total battle as some lady bugs landed on the fresh paint...you can tell where they are in the reflection shot I took (030.jpg)......

regards

woody

Looks good! Got to love those lady bugs. I've had them land on clients houses just after painting the final coat. Oh well.
Did you do the deck as well?
I'm planning to do all of my exterior. A PO painted it without prepping it! So I have paint falling off.
I am going to strip it all first.
