: Has anyone tried to tint interlux paint? Since so little seems to be required
: to paint a boat I was wondering if I could buy white and tint some of it
: blue for the deck?
: Any thoughts?

: Any almost as good as options.....?
: I will be picking up a boat next month that needs some repairs and some paint
: would cover a multitude of less than perfect fixes. Plus my wife has ask
: for white and blue.

You can try it, light colors certainly are possible when tinting, darker colors are easier to get from a dark color to start with and making them lighter. Downside is if you ever need to patch it, getting it to match would be a real trick.
