You guys do realize that Paint is Heavy and slows the boat:)

He's right, we've recorded a difference of 7lbs between painting & wrapping a race car w/ the same scheme.

That's why I wrapped my boat. Trying to keep up with Zero Patience! Ordered some helium for my fenders per his instructions!
I bet painting a skater with all that fairing materilal it is a lot more weight than the race car LOL.

Agreed, race cars one size, boats lots of different sizes. You'd be amazed what a few coats of clear weighs!
Helium is good but we build our cars w/ Unobtanium! Don't ask where we get it b/c I don't know & if I did I couldn't tell you anyway!:lolhit:

So now I wonder if there is a way to infuse Helium in to the paint... Hmmm???
