Use as directed! I used a foam roller and a good brush to blend the paint on the hull. I am going to try spraying the top. The hull has been dry for about two weeks now but seems to feel soft (fingernail test) when in the sun for awhile. I have not subjected my boat to the water as of yet because it is a winter project for next season. All in all this paint brought back a 27 year old faded fiberglass boat to life! Good Stuff!

I use Petit EazyPoxy as a topside paint for an old wooden Sunfish. Over a portion of the deck repaired with okume mahogany plywood, I used sealer and undercoater before the topside paint. One can't detect the repaired area.

Used Electric Blue for hull on my 15' home made boat. Boat is not moored and didn't require a bottom paint. Used with Penetrol for the first coat, very compatible. This paint is very durable and holds up well. Still looks great after 3 seasons with no repaint and only 3 initial coats. My favorite thing about this paint is that it sands very easily between coats and did not gunk up the sand paper like other Oil paints. Best part is I still have a half gallon left! This paint was not cheap however it was well worth the price and that's something you don't see in many products very often.

It says to apply at temperatures between 50 and 90 degrees. We applied when it was in the 30s in the Northwest but under cover. It could be sanded and another coat applied within two day. It was dry to the touch within one day. We did not roll and tip, just rolled and rolled and rolled until all bubbles were gone. It came out looking great! The brush is for cutting in. Get the best brush you can.

I rolled the paint on then tipped it with a brush an a lap strait sail boat. The end product was smooth as silk. I had poeple walk up to the boat thinking it was glass until they got close to see it was made of wood. I also used it with anti-skid for the deck and did not have a fade or flake problem.

A great product! I got a beautiful finish on a fiberglass kayak by following the videos on Jamestown's website. I just want to thank Jamestown for the guidance...clear, easy to follow, and right on-target.
great tough paint last 6 to 10 years on my boat which is kept out side with cover.

I used Pettit Easypoxie, on the bottom and topsides of my 1972 Boston Whaler. It now has blisters all over the bottom and up the sides even as much as six inches above the water line.
This was a project boat, and I did it right. I stripped whole boat right down to below the gel coat. Used degreaser. Then the Pettit special primer, and then the Easypoxie. Looked great too for a week.
This boat is in the water for three months at a time. The blisters appear about a week after launch, stay all summer, and disappear a month or two after it pulled out of the water.
On the can Pettit says it is not to be used for constant immersion. I'd agree with them. Too bad I didn't think to read the can first.

I painted an 18ft. alum. Lowe boat with this paint. It came out pretty good with the roll and tip method. It did dry a little fast, so watch the edges. I would recommend doing the painting inside. I did like the flow of the paint and it did smooth itself out. It was very easy to use.
Maaco auto painters sprayed on and baked 3 coats in there oven booth. it was primed with an epoxy primer by someone else. the shine is brilliant as it was 3 yrs ago. its always kept covered when not in use and out of the water. it was also used below the waterline.

I just painted my 40 foot sailboat with this paint. It is so easy to apply and the finish lays down nicely. Use two thin coats. Roll and tip for large areas it looks great!

Super product! Bright white hard finish. Amazingly durable. Initially used for the sides (and even bottom) of a Sunfish. Made my old boat look new. That was 9 years ago and it still looks just painted.
I also painted my kayak paddles for visibility which were originally black. After 9 years of intense abuse, poling in mud, pushing off of rocks, etc, they have hardly a scratch or chip and are still bright white.
I now use it on anything that I want a long lasting, pure-white, hard finish that is maintenance free!!

Applies easily and it's not too difficult to make it look like a professional job.
