Any thoughts on Interlux VC Performance Epoxy http://www.riversupply.com/product/I...poxy,2272.aspx

Application, durability or any experience in general? It seems to be just what I am looking for. Any suggestions for equal or better alternative. I do not want to go the gel-coat route. I already have everything I need for paint.
What's the plan for removing the existing bottom paint...that's one thing can really mess up a new paint job...is the OLD paint job...

Epoxy w/Teflon by Interlux?...sounds like pretty good stuff to me, although I don't have any 1st hand experience w/it...post up how it works out...
