Default MCU on Masts

Joe Bleau inscribed in red ink for all to know:
Has anyone in the group used moisture cured urethane to repaint spars?
Please tell us about it. Were you pleased? How much prep is
required? Is it a final coat or a primer? Sprayed or brushed?
Thanks.

Joe


We've repainted all our spars (Eolian is a ketch) with Interthane Plus
(now called 'Perfection) 2-part urethane. We are very pleased with the
results. The paint went on beautifully, and is extremely hard. After
several years, I can also report that it weathers very well.

As a side note, I paint cars as well, and this paint system very much
resembles the urethane-hardened PPG Delthane that I use.
