I love the colour. Which paints did you use?

Anthony,

I used International as thats what my local chandlers keep in stock.

One or two-pack?

[Clem Freeman]

One pack, Didn't fancy messing with 2 pack. The paint does seem to scratch/chip quite easily, maybe it will harden more with time.

I HAVE USED ONE PACK TOPLAC ON ALL MY BOATS- EASY TO REPAIR SCRATCHES ETC.
DO NOT LOOK TOO CLOSELY AT PAINT FINISH ON MY POSTED BR17, I HAVE YET TO CUT IN AND IT NEEDS ANOTHER COAT . I WAS IN TOO MUCH OF A HURRY TO SAIL THAN GET THE MIRROR FINISH THAT CAN BE OBTAINED WITH TOPLAC.

Its finished! Just got to paint her name "Chirp" on. Waiting for some decent weather for a first launch (which could end up being at Seafair Haven).
