[QUOTE="dyeguy1212, post: 101297, member: 1460"] I definitely will. If they can gimmie the specs to mix it, I can do all that myself. I'm pretty comfortable spraying, but then again, if a pro is offering, a pro would get to do it. I almost thought about doing 3 coats in pettite red, and then finding out if there was a clear coat I could mix the sparkles with (that would crack ideally), and do one coat with sparkles, and one finisher coat. The tough part is just finding durable and flexible paint. Im sort of looking for another type of marine paint as well. I used pettite on my last boat, and I was not impressed at all by its durability. I did two coats, so maybe I'd try three this time around. It just seemed that when it scratched and chipped, it was coming off down to the primer or aluminum. [/QUOTE]
