Applying AWLGRIP or TotalBoat Wet Edge Topside Paint

Postby Maverick » Wed Jul 03, 2024 6:09 pm

I would like comments and recommendations about applying either AWLGRIP or TotalBoat Wet Edge Topside Paint from someone who has done it.

ASIDE: I want to "freshen-up" the gel coat on the interior {[of an unnamed boat] which has stress cracks and has faded. I have experience using gel coat resin, and I may use gel coat resin instead of another product.
