Professional white rustoleum and valspar hardner. Excellent results and lower price!! I have used awl grip and Bilgekote in the past wasn’t as happy. Prep is key! Good luck

I have used rustoleum with Valspar enamel hardener (you must use that hardener) for almost a decade now. The stuff is great, cheap and easy to find. If you want the off-white fiberglass color in a lot of boats just mix 3qts of white with a qt of their almond. Another thing, the cans of spray paint at depot matches the gallon perfect. Make touch ups easier.
Only one draw back, If you mix the Rustoleum with the hardener you MUST NOT SPRAY IT unless you have a full body suit and a fresh air supply. There is something in the hardener that when sprayed can kill you if inhaled and can even be absorbed through the skin. It only applies to spraying.
