Painting a Valiant.

[Brimptsman]

I have two issues on our recently purchased Valiant 40:
Firstly inside the hull is lined with closed cell insulation and I would like to paint a protective layer on the foam.
Secondly Calypso has a multitude of pimple sized blisters on the cabin sides, she is a blister era boat, I was wondering if anyone has sanded and painted their cabin/coamings/decks to improve the tired look of an older boat.
The boat yard has suggested using Interlux Perfection, any thoughts ?.
thanks

Careful with Perfection in Canada it was ban for consumer use . It has Isocyanates in it and are a major cause of cancer. A respirator is not good enough for this product ,a helmet with fresh air supply is a must , same goes for dupont Imron , and some Awlgrip products

Thanks for the warning, any thoughts on Brightside, maybe less toxic?

 

[Mechone]

Brightside is fine ,however not as durable

Resin blisters rather than osmotic water blisters are a thing on some years of Valiants. Valiant 40 resin blisters
