Default Gel coat replacement?

Peter,

I don't have the answer for you but I'm in the process of getting it for
you. I elected to go with the vinyl bottom this passed summer. So, I'll
let you know in about 5 yrs. It sure was a great looking job!

What company did you get your vinyl paint from.

I used to use Woolsey Super Vinylast but they
don't make it any more. I like Vinyl for the
scrubability factor alone plus the colors seem
brighter and they don't fade.

The only real trouble with vinyl is you can only
paint certain kinds of paint on top of it without
it bubbling up. It generally has to be sanded or
scraped off before applying regular paints to it.

I had to buy a special gallon of paint to cover the
old vinyl before applying the Petit paint this last
time. It is designed to 'fix' the vinyl paint against
being lifted by the regular paints. It wasn't cheap.
