It flexes, has great adhesion and lasts longer than the boat. Some of the best paint in this class is made be ..... Sherman-Williams!.. (They bought out ConLux paints a while back, and Conlux was used to paint the Tappen Zee bridge, as well as many high salt air exposure projects) I've painted 3 trailers with the stuff and all 3 are still in perfect condition more than 8 years later.

Sherwin williams has a awesome 2 part poly system. And they will crossreference and tint any color you want. The reason i went with Awlgrip is because of the insane deal i got on my paint system from a local boat yard. The VC performance epoxy was originally made for race sale boats. The vc is what i will paint my bottom with. No primers required just paint over preped gelcoat!
