Re: Stus-List Hard starting

I find EasyPoxy to be a lot softer than Brightsides, and definitely takes longer to cure hard. I have never tried the Rustoleum paint, but the samples I saw comparing the results were very much in favour of the Interlux. Jim Watts Paradigm Shift C 35 Mk III Victoria, BC On 23 August 2016 at
