TotalBoat Wet Edge Marine Topside Paint for Boats, Fiberglass, and Wood (Flat White, 1 Quarts (Pack of 1))

Largo Blue so beautiful! Sprayed it on with paint gun but first I thinned paint 15% then applied. It's beautiful!

First, I had never painted a boat and was dubious about reports of near-spray quality results with any of the boat paints. My boat is old so I figured anything would be an improvement. I chose Total Boat mainly because it was easier through Amazon. I mixed two parts Yellow with one part Fighting Lady. (Can't add pigment. You have to mix Wet Edge paint instead).I was amazed at the smooth finish of the final paint job. I think that it is 85% of a spray job. If I had thought that it would turn out this well I would have been more careful with the primer coats and prep.Advice: Painting outdoors is challenging. Each coat takes several days to dry and then you have to fight rain, humidity and temperature. I finished it in the garage and it was a snap. For me, the primer was really thick, went on with a lot of orange peel and it dried slowly, and it was clumping during sanding because I didn't let it cure (all problems were user error). When the primer was cured it was easily sanded down and may have helped with smoothing the fiberglass imperfections. The primer prep is he key to a quality paint job. Take your time here.The paint went on well. The first coat had some orange peel because I put it on too thick and didn't have a quality paint brush. It was remediated when I sanded it down (again, wait for it to cure!). I applied the last coat uncomfortably thin with tip and roll, and it turned out marvelous! It took 1 gallon of primer and about 1/2 gallon of paint for an 18' boat.Use a 1/8" foam roller (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0168S0ETE?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1) for the areas you want to look perfect, and use a true badger hair brush (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000N9LE80?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1). It is worth the money for this task.

I foam rolled my lobster boat and used a 15 % total boat reducer. Temp was 85 degrees. 75 % humidity.Light sand between coats. I am happy with the paint.

I bought this paint to do something it wasn't made for. I'm using it on old tires to make white walls on my VW rat rod. Way, way cheaper than buying white walls. Just needed to scuff up and clean the area of the tires I wanted to paint. Seems to be working more or less so far. It's obviously not show quality but it makes the old tires and car look cool. Easy to touch up as needed also. Now, I only need to come up with some sort of boat to finish up what's left in the can.

First and most importantly: do your research. Our 20 year old fiberglass slide had a lot of cracks. I bought the 3M fiberglass repair, 1 QT total boat primer & thinner along with 1 QT of paint. I found that a rinsed and dryed microfiber roller and paintbrush technique worked best to ensure a great finish. The foam rollers fell apart. I also invested in a sander which helped with the prep work once the primer dried. Dilute 10% minimum as the warmer weather made everything dry more quickly. I would wait 2-3 days between priming and painting to ensure it’s dry. Then another few days before using. Proper priming made everything smooth, but sticky for the perfect finish. I used one coat and followed it up with a touch up coat for a flawless finish with plenty to also do the underneath as well. Our slide looks brand new!

Goes on good one coat.one qt. did a 27 ft. it's. Just the bottom water strip. got to do the back yet I purchased 2 qts.

Must follow the insructions as to prep and application but the results are great.

Amazon: They don't know how to ship the paint so it doesn't get damaged. First gallon of paint arrived damaged. The Amazon computerized return system was going to make me ship it back or some nonsense like that. Without opening I contacted Amazon directly and was sent a second can. Luckily I didn't try to use it, eventually I opened it and it had skinned over 1/4" thick!Product: the product is very hard to use and takes a lot of patience.1) must use primer. I had a newly created boat and tried to paint (only) some hard to reach areas during assembly. It took many coats, at least 4, for coverage. It also eventually yellowed so it may not be suited for semi-enclosed spaces.2) it doesn't follow out at all if unthinned. If unthinned it skins over so quick it's hard to keep a wet edge. If you attempt to tip it, it just leaves brush marks in the paint. Unthinned, but thinly applied, it still takes well over 24 hours to "dry". If you apply it thick enough to self level a bit it never dries fully and is a soft gummy mess.3) If you thin it enough to follow out and keep a wet edge and tip well, it takes over 36 hours to dry, maybe 48 hours. Good luck keeping dust out of something sticky for 48 hours!! When thinned enough to tip it's coverage is even worse, and took 3 coats to cover totalboat's white primer. It took forever, since you need to wait at least 2 days between coats to wet sand out all the dust!4) I've also tried using it to apply softsand and we'll see if it ever dries. I think that the "overly thick" coat that forms (all the valleys in the nonskid) means it will never dry. It's been drying for 3 days now - still wet.Recommendation: don't use this paint.

Unacceptable delivery.....delayed my project ...never again This Company should not dist. This product in Canada.
