To all paint mavens:

My Willard 30 hull needs to be painted after 27 years exposure to the
elements. I don't have access to a paint shed. I'm not interested in a high
gloss finish, just a plain durable functional white coat which will look
decent, cover up hull blemishes, and protect what is left of the gel coat.
Would anyone care to evaluate the various paint options, i.e. single
component polyurethane enamels, dual component polyurethane enamels, epoxy
fortified acrylics, or plain old self cleaning house paint in terms of
preparation time, ease of brush application, self levelling qualities, and
durability.

Thanks,

Larry Z
