We have brackish water here so we get a yellow water stain. when I come home I just break out the water hose and rinse the yellow water stain off.
It still looks new no scratches or fading or chipping

When I decide to paint the entire hull I'll do it in automotive paint.
My 2 cents worth.
When I saw you'd weighed in on this post w/your background I figured we were gonna get some special deep dark secret sauce to finish our Vs with...and danged if I wasn't right...car paint...who'd have figured....
