Pettit Bottom Paint

New Moon's bottom paint, Pettit Hydrocoat, is still looking good and working well after 6 summers in SE Alaska, and six winters sitting on the trailer. I was thinking maybe I should recoat last spring, but decided not to, and it still worked. Inexpensive, and not nasty to work with.

I also used Pettit Hydrocoat last year, when i pulled my boat this October is was virtually like new paint, i recoated where the scum line was but that was just for cosmetic reasons. Great paint. Tug

I'm loving Pettit Hydrocoat. Applied it this spring and still looks new this fall. Its water based, very easy cleanup. I applied with a brush and the results look like it was sprayed on. It even gets slicker and faster with use.

We use Pettit Ultima SR 60. Great Paint! The boat is kept in the water from April to November here in costal NC. The paint has been on the boat for 3 years with only 1 recoat at the water line. I'll probably re-paint next spring and plan to use the same stuff, regardless of the cost.
