Bottom paint
How much bottom paint will I need to put 2 coats on my pdq 36 (ablative). Thank you all.
Re: Bottom paint
When we do 2 coats, the first coat uses just over 1 gal, and if we're really stingy we can get a second coat with the remainder of the second gal. Our hulls are pretty smooth, without much build-up, so that helps too. Good luck and all the best.....

Re: Bottom paint
Thanks Bruce. I will plan on 2 gal.
Re: Bottom paint
It was always a little less than 2-gallons for my 32, so that sounds right.
