Interior Boat

[Marshall Wright]

Greetings,

I've now finished all my interior work and want to paint parts of the interior. As several of you had recommended, I used some Bilgecoat for my interior lockers. It was fine but doesn't have the finish I'd like elsewhere inside the boat.

I need to paint the wooden bases on which my table and head are fixed, a teak-veneered partition face or two and some interior fiberglass hull sides that are exposed to the interior. I have lots of wood and want to brighten things up a little.

I'd like a semi-gloss finish that will set off my wood trim and cabinetry.

What type of paint is recommended given the variety of surface types that I have? Should I look at the topsides products or just stick with a high quality house enamel?

Marshall -

Here's a thread that discusses the options and - unusually for this forum - provides some fairly diverse opinions . . .

Thanks gjvp for the link.

Question though. I'd seen this link before and had decided to use Tim's suggestion on the Premium Yacht Enamel by Interlux. But when I opened up my catelog to order from Jamestown, they have the same photo Tim used for both their one and a two-part poly paint.

Is the recommendation the one-part poly???????

No. The recommendation I listed in the previous thread is for Interlux Premium Yacht Enamel Semi-Gloss, not polyurethane. The pictures aren't the same, but don't go by the pictures in any case

Here it is: Link: Jamestown Distributors: Interlux Premium Yacht Enamel, #220 (JT catalog number INT-0220G)
