Default temporary primer paint

I have a cabin structure on my catamaran that is
foam/epoxy/fiberglass. I haven't finished fairing the
joints between the pre-fabricated panels and winter is
closing in here. So I realize I won't be able to start
fairing painting etc. before April. I want to paint the
exposed surface so that UV doesn't damage the foam & the
epoxy.

God knows we don't get a lot of sun up in Vancouver over the
winter (I think about 18 hours for the whole winter) but I'd
feel better doing this.

Anybody got any ideas for a cheap paint (latex??) that will
sand off easily in the spring - I still have mold release
wax on the surfaces that I might just leave on...

The only thing that really hangs on over wax is beetle shells in
alcohol. :-)
Usually colored red/orange, easily removed with solvent. May be too
expensive for the purpose though....
