Can you call the dealer and ask? If you don't get it right your going to have problems with adhesion. |

You need to find out or you can have a big mess on your hands. It can be a hard paint (modified epoxy) or an ablative (the kind that wears off). You are best off sticking with the type used in the first place. If you have an ablative then you must stick with that. If you have a modified epoxy then you can go with that or an ablative. The modified epoxy types usually have to be redone each year because they lose effectiveness when the boats out of the water. The ablative can last several seasons, and touched up when it wears off. |
