I have painted a few things in my day too, and unless you are banging the hell out of the docks it should stay nice for awhile.

Sorry I have not read this whole thread but when I was at the Miami show I asked the guy who painted all of the Cigarettes about paint versus gel and he said paint will last about 2 years (his words) and then they start to degrade, especially in salt.
Maybe he needs to switch product lines...thats nonsense....

Mosquitos aren't a problem if your boat has built in repellant
Nice pics, Dog. If there's one thing RD loves, it's gators.
By the way.... that orange motor couldn't look any worse if it was a throbbing purple glans. Can't you rattle can that thing to a more respectable color?
