Has anyone tried this paint?

[tigglestiger]

I would like to paint my hull, the previous owner has painted it light blue and it is beginning to look scruff. I wondered if anyone has had any experience with this paint:

The obvious boat shop paint would be Toplac or Hemple Brilliant Enamel, however this seems good value at over half the price.

Any suggestions welcome... thanks

Looks quite good, although below the waterline I would still use a 2 pack epoxy.

Its only above the waterline i need to do, below is in a good condition. I am looking for something with a nice gloss finish.

I used paint from them last summer to repaint my deck. I used their single pack floor paint, as there is also a non-slip version available. No problems so far. Can't talk about the boat enamel though.

Removed double post - sorry.

Worth a go ! Silicon Alkyds usually behave well for UV, Gloss ect, look for colour definition, brightness flow out, leveling and ease of application (wet edge) and tolerance to working conditions, this is often where the most time is spent in development. Yacht paints often have a longer wet edge to enable application to large surface areas with no breaks
Let us know.
