Are you planning on spraying or brushing it on? good recommendations, guys....thanks probably brush it on. too cheap for a sprayer! Rolling with a long pole attachment to get under the boat is a lot easier. |

Rolling with a long pole attachment to get under the boat is a lot easier. Two words, "power roller"... That's all I am gonna' say cause I have been painting for decades and have used everything... In fact, I have everything ![]() Most decent bottom paint is thick and heavy. Crawling under the boat and hand rolling is the only way to do it. IMHO |

IMHO Now that you mention it, I wonder if bottom paint would work with an entry level power roller... Hummmm. If so, it's the only way to paint. Roller in one hand, brush in the other. I use the power roller basically to lay the paint down, then "shape" it with the brush for interior and exterior paint. Haven't used it for boat paint yet... That's surprising, because from the looks of what is left of your paint job on your rowboat, I would have thought you opened the can of paint and threw the paint at the boat. |
