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.
