I did use interlux brightside and their primer. I did dilute it a bit. Interlux has a pamphlet and they discussed how to dilute it. I'm not sure but they spell it out in the pamphlet,either a 6262 or 711 not sure which one it was. They have a white that has a hint of blue in it and it is very much like the original uniflite color that also had a hint of blue in it. I painted it outside on a day when it was really calm. It really did turn out nice. I only used one coat but will probably do another coat in a year or so when I spray below the rubrail.
