Boat Cabin Paint
I have read on the internet about paint used on the interior of boat cabins. some writers declare that a standard home interior paint is all that is required. others suggest that the climate in a boat cabin is more extreme and suggest that a kitchen or bathroom paint is more appropriate.. Today i'll show you an easy do it yourself way to paint your boat's topsides. let's start by protecting the shearstrake and taping the edge. if the surface is dirty, take a tack rag and wipe it. What paint to use on inside wall of a boat? discussion in 'ask all sailors' started by sd1953, apr 27, 2014. why do people go to home stores to buy paint for boats? two different things. pettit has a product called "cabin coat" which is a mildew resistant marine paint. the other nice thing about this you can apply if over a glossy surface.
Paint odour is a factor to consider in confined spaces, it will take about a month to dissipate for most anything, however if you want to use the boat immediately, you can get special low voc (volatile organic compound) formulations used for interior painting.. I paint my boat myself (diy) i'm a professional and have a license to use professional boat paint products. this option is for shipyards, distributors, retailers and applicators.. Have been using good quality masonary and floor paint as undercoat with international or dulux outdoor gloss paint for many years now. others in my up - market boat club have even been using floor paint to paint the outside of their hulls with good results..
