: I agree with the idea, but I have hours of use in the sun, rain,
: storms, etc and never had a single problem. I am not alone
: either. A lot of small boat builders use good quality enamel
: house paint. A lot are even starting to use latex house paint.
: After all a house stays in the weather 24/7.

After my last time playing with latex house paint, never again. Something like 14 coats of the stuff get even close to an even paint color, not me.
