with the 23 year old gelcoat.

I'm using a paint that is not that well known here in the Pac NW. It's
called ALEXSEAL, and it's made in Germany by a company that also makes
the paints they use for commercial jets. (Mankiewicz). They have been
around for about 100 years, and the yacht paint division has been
developed by a guy who used to be the head of U.S. Paint and has an
excellent reputation in yacht finishing.

A link for anybody with an interest in knowing more about the paint:

How many zillions per gallon, including your Fisheries discount?

A lot, I'm sure. The paint was included in the total "paint job"
portion of the contract.

I've been assured that this is the up and coming thing in high-end
paints, and the spin looks impressive. Most of the firms previous
paints have been used with very good success on industrial equipment
and aircraft, which are both pretty tough applications.
