wheels 543 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Well that gives lots of options. I think both the brands you mentioned are fine. But there are a few others to consider as well. i think the main point comes down to price. Link to post Share on other sites
TimW 1 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Microsurfacer as the High Build. Interprotect as the Epoxy Primer. We used YRA600 above the waterline and Interprotect under the waterline. Topsides are Awlcraft 2000. Decks are Reaction Lacquer Semi Gloss. Deal directly with Brent Gribble, you can't go wrong. Link to post Share on other sites
Clive 13 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 While we are on the subject... Who do I take my paint sample along to to match up the colour? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Paint match isn't going to happen. I know someone building a new fizzy that the paint suppliers are respraying the interior of at their cost as the colour match between 2 batches of their paint is bad enough to be visible to the casual observer.
