Bottom Paint advice ?
 
I painted my boat with Interlux Interspray 800 system , except the bottom. The paint i used is still in awsome shape . I want to paint the bottom but Im not sure if this will be tough enough
for the bottom running surface ? Any ideas . IMRON ? AWLGRIP ? the boat does not stay in the water , its on a lift.

I could not find any paint manufacturers that would bless their product under the water line. (Unless you want bottom paint for ablative purposes) Although I have heard of multiple boat owners using the paints you mentioned successfully. By the book you need gel coat under the water.

Epoxy's are good underwater but will chalk overtime in the sunlight.
