Re: acrylic latex paint

Ya want it to peel like pulling your bedsheet back? Use acrylic latex around water.

I know that industry is using more and more water based coatings, but they are not the kind of thing that the average citizen can apply.

Keep us posted. I've got another boat, a little 13' "Bream Buster". I'm thinking about using it on that.
