Comments about Epifanes Epifanes - Monourethane - One-Component Paint System:

I rolled and hand-tipped with excellent results. Make sure to prepare the primer surface to as close to perfect as possible. I was more than happy with how it went on. Excellent flow and leveling properties. Temperature and humidity are big factors. Talk to the tech help for pointers. The person I talked with really helped me.

Painted anchor locker cover with white Epifanes Mono-urethane on one side and Interlux Brightsides on the other. After several weeks drying time, Epifanes is proving to be considerably harder using my wife's fingernails sideways scratch test. Both products spread and leveled well and give a very high gloss. Does hardness translate to long term durability? Time will tell.

From an application standpoint, this paint made a good result relatively easy. It can be used over epoxy if no blush is present. I used it over Maas Epoxy that was primed with Interlux Pre-Kote, sanded until about half the primer was gone. No adhesion problems, no drying problems. Great results. Nice color selection too!

I am a first time boat painter. I used this to paint my 38' Easterly sailboat and was rewarded with a beautiful finished product. I sprayed the paint with an HVLP gun outdoors. Do your prep work right and you won't go wrong.

Even after 4 days paint was not hard, and boat straps on cover removed paint down to the primer.

I've used this product for three seasons on the topsides of my 30 foot sailboat.

In durability, stain and scratch resistance it is as close to a two-part PU as I have seen.

Easy to apply. Levels well. High gloss.

Caution: Doesn't hide well, so the surface must be perfectly primed.

I have used it as a roll on/tip off. It levels off great. Apply thin coats. Don't fuss with it and let it level out. The gloss is amazing.

Use their recommended thinner.

A very small amount of thinner added to the can will prolong shelf life of the remaining portion.

I used this to paint the hull of my C&C 26 dark blue in early spring when the temperatures were just reaching 60F during the day. Despite the cold wet weather, the paint went on easily and covered well. I used Interlux Pre-Kote as a primer and ended up thinning the Epifanes far more than is recommended so that it would flow out in the cold weather. I have seen no sign of problems - no loss in gloss and no loss in durrability. The hull has been out in the rain, sun, and snow for three seasons now and it still looks as if it just poped out of the mold - impossible to tell it was painted. This paint dries to a very hard finish. Be careful to thin it enough so that it flows out. It is difficult to sand out brush strokes. Even thinned nearly 50%, I had no trouble covering the primer in one coat. I rolled it on using a foam roller and tipped it off using a 3" badger brush cleaning the brush often in mineral spirits to eliminate paint buildup. The only trouble I had was with wind kicking up dust in the yard. This is a very forgiving paint - easy to use, covers well, and flows out well. I am delighted with the results and have no regrets in selecting this over a two part LP paint.
