: Assuming you're talking about Bill Hamm's Dacron/fiberglass skin,
: any paint applied to the fiberglass outer layer will get
: scratched. To hide the scratches it will get, I like to tint the
: epoxy the same color as the paint. For paint I've been using
: Interlux Brightsides marine urethane. It's high gloss, easy to
: apply with a roller/brush/spray and touches up readily. Also, I
: happen to have a few quarts kicking around from other projects!

Pettit's Easy-Poxy is almost the same exact product, so if you can't find one, the other is fine too.
