In Response To: Re: Skin-on-Frame: Skin on frame kayak questions (TylerVeinot)
I believe that a number of people have reported complete failure of latex paint as a skin coating. You need to use an oil-based paint, and if you are using nylon even most oil-based paints won't adhere well. As far as marine paints go, most of them are advertised as being very hard and glossy with little or no mention of flexibility or elasticity, which is the primary requirement for your purpose. I called Epifanes to talk about this, and they thought their traditional oil-based topside paint would be the best choice, while freely admitting they had no idea if it would work or not.
