Who has painted there deck??

[macojoe]

I am in bad need of doing the deck over in my boat!! The deck is solid and I just need to paint it with something that will last!!!!
I was going to have it LineX but they want $800+ and thats to much for me!!
So I am wondering whats the best epoxy or paint that I can do my self??

Thanks

I've used the Interlux 2 part Epoxy but you need non-skid because it's slippry when wet. I've also used a product called Duracoat http://www.nonslipcoating.com/anticorrosive.htm

It comes in many colors and hides lots of sins while add a great nonskid surface.

Good luck and clean well and paint fast!

Thanks! I think I will be able to get away with one gal?? says 1 gal will do 2 coats on 60 sq feet. so with out painting the floor tank covers I belive I will beable!
Not bad $119 gal and $15 shipping $135 vs $800+ I will do it!!

Thanks MTC

do it with those little 3" soft foam rollers. great for two part stuff.

Use a light color... it gets hot in the sun. I did my old 22' Mako 2 coats with 1 gallon. How big is the boat? My25' Chris Craft was a strech on 1 Gallon but it has a huge cockpit.....

20 foot Wellcraft V20, Yea I have a white and dark gray right now. Was thinking sand color or light gray to keep the glare down?
