Re: Barrier Coat
Phil,
I used 2 gallons for my X two years ago. If you're going to West to buy your supplies, bring a print out of an online competitor and they will beat the price, (including shipping and taxes); I saved almost $200.

PS Did you ever post a trip report from the Keys?

Re: Barrier Coat
Yes, two one-gallon kits will do the job. You will be able to apply four coats.paj637 wrote:Is 2 gallons of Interlux 2000E enough to do a roller/brush on barrier coat on a 26M?
I would suggest you get one white kit and one grey. Mix only a half gallon at a time and alternate the colors to ensure you get good coverage with each coat.
After the third coat -
Blue anti-fouling for extra speed -
Ready to launch -
