I need to paint out the heads of my Pintail. Does standard Dulux satinwood work or do I have to spend a fortune on one of the yacht paints?

not only Dulux but the 'brand" ones such as Homebase ones also.
I am sticking with Dulux Weathershield Gloss for the outside of my hull, as it really does last a long long time - even in the marine environment.

Hi Jack
I have used International paints 'Garage floor paint' in the bilges and sides for years, washable, stain resistant and oil resistant, AND half the price of 'marina' paints, Got mine from B & Q'
Woodwork is using International paints 'woodskin' (£16.95 a tin locally).

I used Dulux Eggshell for the interior woodwork on KS. Not a particularly challenging environment (there's no wood in the heads for example) but for what it's worth it's doing fine so far.
