: Rustoleum works very well and after a few days becomes rather tuff.
: I have used it on several boats. Most any good oil based porch
: and deck enamel will probably work just fine.

: I have used water based but I was not impressed. Harder to apply
: and no where near as touch once it dried. I do like the water
: cleanup and the semi-gloss look better.

I'd also highly not recommend Rustoleum's water based paint. While it works ok and is fairly tough it takes an insane number of coats to get anywhere near full coverage. On my Sea Ranger I used it and it's held up fine and I like the semi-gloss finish, but it took 6 quarts of paint to get there with two coats per quart, that's 12 coats of paint !

Could have been paddling a week or more earlier if I'd used oil based paint. Can always use a dulling agent to make gloss oil based paint semi-gloss.
