Ron:

 

My first boat was a Ranger 26.  Shortly after I purchased it, I had it 
re-painted with white Imron (about 30 years ago).  The boat is kept at the same 
facility as mine, and the hull still looks good.  Recently, the current owner 
had the deck re-painted.  It looks great, but I suspect it’s not Imron.  I 
would think Imron is too slippery for deck paint.

Subject: Stus-List Painting substitution question

 

Well, the old Wild Cheri is in bad need of a new paint job.  But rather than a 
regular expensive marine paint, here's an interesting question:  Since 
Corvettes and other cars are either fiberglass or plastic these days, couldn't 
some kind of auto paint work as well on the deck and hull?

I would imagine auto paint would be less expensive since it's used so often and 
so widespread.

Any downside the list can think of?
