TotalBilge is a long-lasting, epoxy-based bilge paint specifically formulated to protect your bilge, bulkhead, and locker areas. The constant exposure to harmful marine elements like heat, humidity, mildew, grease and grime requires a superior bilge barrier solution to resist moisture and repel most oils, acids, alkyds and solvents right on the spot.
When compared to the top brand name bilge paints, TotalBilge stands up to the test. The single-component paint is easy to apply, dries quickly, and provides excellent coverage with a much harder surface finish. In addition, TotalBilge is easy to clean and does not lift, mildew, or stain over time.
Available in Gray & White colors, in Quart and Gallon sizes.

Given the somewhat mixed reviews I was a bit skeptical but my results are excellent and I'm happy with the product. I did have to paint in rather low temperatures which I'm sure slowed the drying process but I just left it for a week and it was completely dry when I returned. I was painting new glass so a second coat was in order and it too dried well.

Took forever to dry and I'm still not sure it is completely. I bought 2 quarts and the color difference between the two was extreme. Make sure you mix.

I've been using it in the sail locker and other storage areas. It goes on easily and depending on the color/condition of what's underneath, one coat is often enough. I haven't tried it in the actual bilge yet, although I noted an answer to one of the questions which stated that it isn't suitable for continuous submersion in water - strange for bilge paint! Anyway, I just ordered another gallon so I guess that says enough.

We used the TotalBoat TotalBilge Epoxy paint to refinish a concrete birdbath that we and the birds have grown fond of. Our last refinish was with a two-part epoxy, with reasonable results. However, from the time the first brush of TotalBilge Epoxy hit the concrete, it appears to be a superior product. After nearly a month of use, including two freeze events, this refinish job remains unfazed by the water, the sun, the frost, and the bird droppings. Time will tell, but things certainly look promising a month into the refinish job. We did take special care to repair several cracks with epoxy, and to either remove the prior paint or to rough it up thoroughly for best adhesion of the TotalBilge Epoxy.

Was pleasantly surprised on how well this product performs in application, coverage and black and white hiding capabilities. Boat project is still ongoing so do not know yet how product will perform once in actual use with your typical bilge liquids. Only negative is its dry time, a little too slow, wish it was faster (i.e. 4 - 6 hrs @ 60F) dry thru time.
