Put a Coat of Epoxy over Fairing Compound on the Deck?

I will coat the fairing compound with epoxy primer (specifically, 404/414 Epoxy Primkote that you probably have mentioned in another post), and use it as a barrier to prevent water from getting into the fairing compound. snip Save yourself some trouble. Pick a coating system then use their high build primer to seal the fairing compound. That is how the systems are engineered. Lew Something that I said might have misled you to believe that I was choosing different products from different companies. Yes, I am sticking with one system to finish the deck. This was the reason why I will be using Interlux 404/414 Epoxy Primkote as the primer. And then I will put on a two part polyurethanes (Interlux Perfection) over the primer with flattening agent and non-skid additives (all from Interlux). This is exactly what the painting guide in Interlux web site recommends, and I am sticking to it (I don't know this well enough to try to derivate from the painting guide). Thanks for the warning though. Jay Chan |
