In article , Roger Long says...

I think I remember the yard that put the VC 17 M over the VC 17 that
came with the boat saying that all that needed to be done is go over
the surface with a Scotch Brite pad.

Anybody out there successfully recoated with VC 17 M without sanding?

I have done this several times. On the north side of Lake Ontario, it is one of
the benefits of VC17. As a bottom-cote it works well enough and other than
smelly is quite easy to handle.

You will have washed the hull. Any funny/rough spots I touch with hand sand
paper.

Because the solvent is so volatile, some people either decant the mixed paint
into a disposable water/sport bottle so they can squeze out what they need. I
just use last year's can lid with a couple of holes punched in the top, so I can
pour out a couple of ounces onto the roller/tray and the rest does not evaporate
before my eyes.

Good Luck
