[QUOTE="Earlo, post: 347192, member: 4386"] The carpet on the Suzie Too had gotten pretty nasty. I use the boat about 75 times a year, so even while keeping it inside, the floor was in need of a redo. I wanted to get something that was washable but tough enough to stand up to a lot of use. I found this "paint" at Lowe's called Restore that comes in a bunch of colors and was about $25 a gallon. Water-based, thick as a milkshake and dries pretty quickly. I did not weigh the panels before and after painting them, but they were not appreciably heavier, even though I slathered it on pretty thick. I coated both sides of every piece on the boat, with one medium coat followed by a really thick coat. The surface looks meaner than it actually is, I was barefoot in the boat last week and it feels great and does not get too hot. We'll see how it holds up. Crappie are spawning right now in TX and my time on the water is about to go up to level orange. [/QUOTE]
