: Actually there is one very good one: automotive urethane. Cars and
: trucks stay out in the sun for years with little to no
: degradation these days. There are supposed to be some marine
: urethanes that are even better (wildly expensive from previous
: inquires with Dupont). There should be no need to ever recoat
: the entire boat. For deep scratches, just spot fix them (I like
: Perfection varnish). Surface ones can be buffed out. Most local
: body shops like oddball projects once and a while.

What's wildly expensive, and how do you quantify it? Awlcraft 2000 is definitely expensive, but so is schooner gold, and I'll be over the same time span you'd have to reapply schooner gold several times before the Awlcraft would need to be redone. If it would need to be redone. So the cost becomes much more front-end as opposed to the long-term cost.
