Wow – my 35 needs paint. Let me know how this goes!
BTW- I have heard nothing but excellent reviews of Rustoleum topsides paint 
that is way cheap compared to marine brands, both for results and ease of use. 
I used EZPoxy way back in the day on a wooden Penguin I had sans primer. I 
ended up peeling off ☹  Primer is 90% of the battle. It is designed to connect 
old mystery paint to new paint ☺

If you do not know what paint was used previously it is strongly recommended 
that you prime.  You do not know what if any reaction may take place between 
the old and new paint

I'm painting my hull with a one part topside paint and I decided on EZ Poxy by 
Pettit.  I've heard better things about Pettit's one part than Interlux's 
Brightside.  Awlgrip is much more expensive and supposedly much more difficult 
to work with.  I'm painting a C&C 35 Mk1 in the sweltering Louisiana summer 
heat.  Any tips on using EZ Poxy?

The plan is a good pressure washing, followed by Bio Blue Hull, orbital sand 
with ~200 grit, acetone clean, paint (brush and tip), sand with 300 grit, wipe 
down, then apply a second coat.  Boot strip and details will be done with 
Pettit Boot Top.
I don't plan on priming because Tango's original gel coat has already been 
painted over.  The paint job is holding up and looks to be in decent enough 
shape to paint over.

Any tips or suggestions?
