Comments about Kirby Kirby Topside Paints - Standard Colors:
This is great paint, I used in the preservation of a 1922 Lyman 13' Ideal row boat. #5 Grey in the bilge and semi-gloss white on the topsides, as per original color scheme.
The authentic semi-gloss finish and even paint flow helped the boat win a first in class at Clayton 2009 Antique Boat Show. Judges were pleased that a paint was used that was available when the little Lyman was built. You can not go wrong with this product.

Comments about Kirby Kirby Topside Paints - Standard Colors:
I'm about to paint my seventh wood/canvas canoe using Kirby's paint. Have used other brands and find this is a superior marine enamal. Just mix a small amount of penetrol to smooth out the flow and it goes on with ease.I use a small (3") roller and apply about 2x3 feet square then smooth with good foam brushes. As in other top of the line marine paints this is not a cheap paint but well worth the expense. No priming necessary.
