Hi Rod,

I did mine using Petit Perfection (Now called Interlux Perfection) and
after 6 coats on one side and 5 on the other it came out: Perfect.  After 5
years, it's still perfect and the only maintenance it has received is the
occasional wipe down using lake water while we're swimming.

The reason for the multiple coats was the learning curve / I wasn't willing
to settle for anything short of perfection.

A few pointers:


   - Doing it in the summer when the weather is warm and humid you have to
   get it done before 9:30 am or before the sun is high enough to make any
   difference on surface temperature
   - Experiment with the catalyst mix / test on a smooth test surface
   - My best painting technique was brushing it on with a super soft brush,
   start with horizontal stroke and "tip" downward to break-up the brush
   lines. All that done quickly to keep the wet edge and the tipping is one or
   2 touches ONLY per spot. Just keep going, let it lay down on its own. (I
   have also tried roll and tip with different rollers  / spraying is
   "Verboten" at my yard)
   - Make sure you sand to a very smooth finish as prep and between the
   coats
