I did an Arctic Tern and a canoe using Interlux 2-part, and an Osprey recently using the System 3 WB-LPU.
The Interlux is very tough. I can drag the canoe across the dock without even dulling the gloss -- not one scratch. However is is toxic stuff, smells horrble, you need a mask, gloves, and a place with lots of fresh air.
The WB-LPU is easy to use, dries in less than an hour for recoat, cleans up with water, and could be done inside the house with our and odor.
I still gloved up and work a mask as precations.
Both are thin -- like milk. I rolled both and tipped out both with a foam brush. About the same issues, but the WB-LPU dries so much quicker you have to work fast. I did get three coats and then two cross-linked coats in one day. It is great to start and finish you UV coat in one day.
I would NEVER uses the Interlux again. I think that the WB-LPU is just as hard and is not as toxic, expensive, or time consumming.
Just my three cents...
