Default Pettit Easypoxy

Well, my V still isnt painted yet. Keep hearing excuses.
Did aliitle more wet sanding on the V today and I hate it. To much work on the arms. Its like carrying two dozen of dontuts. ;D

Anybody ever work with Pettit Easypoxy paint ??? ???
Its a one part paint, so I guess it isnt as good as awlgrip being a two part paint. Its cheaper to.

Think we need a "HAMMERS" Painting party, since we all know I HATE PAINTING !!. ;D

Yep. Ive used it on my 16ft.Carolina wooden boat and it holds up really good. Its been on there about 5-6 years, and no cracking or peeling yet. I havent tried it on glass.

I would try to stick to two part paints, awlgrip, or interlux perfection even. I sprayed the awlcraft 2000, it was nice to work with and is somewhat forgiving in that it is buffable and you can "spot" in repairs. The regular awlgrip is nice but tougher to work with if your not set up for it. Its also less forgiving if you screw it up. If your gonna spend the time prepping and painting I think its best to use the most durable stuff you can. If your just painting to sell it then latex works great ;) . Im no expert, just my .2 cents.

You should consider the Devoe 379 two part paint. I use it at work and painted my topside with it. Hold up great, nice shine and pretty affordable.

It's hard to say, it's been awhile. I'm thinking it was something like $50.00 for a gallon. I got it from the ICI paint store. Awlgrip is like $250.00 a gallon.
