toob paint

http://www.hmgmarine.com/flexithane.html

i know polymarine do a version as do others,
i used this on some Hypaoln and section of PU, material last night out of a spray gun not rollerd or brushed, supply viscosity is pretty dam thick, and for the life of me i can not get it off done a scratch test/ rubbing it on corner of table/picking at it, this is shite to a blanket job,, goin to paint the bottom below strake on the toranado the weekend will show the results as and when, ideal for your sea rider refurbs (with gaffa tape of course) or any thing that has staining from prolonged mooring some place that will not come clean,

Available in any colour of the rainbow or mixed to pattern, i like it, and thought it may be of interest to others,
edd

main points are to key up the surface and dont apply it if the surface is damp or shows any sign of moisture .

Is it a polyurethane based coating? Aliphatic or maybe Aromatic polyurethane?
