    Default What paint do you use.

    As the title says, Now that 2 pack modelling paints are difficult if not immpossible to obtain now because of the nastys in it. What paint do you find is good all round & dries reasonably hard for wood built boats mainly. I know you can get 2 pack car paints but is that suitable on boats ecsecialy wood as i know it may dry to hard & possibly crack in time + the price of some of these paint are & thinners are very expensive just to paint a few boats with.

    Do you mean two-part epoxy? There are two-part aerosol epoxy primers and clear coats, for example:
    http://www.repaintsupply.com/pd_2_part.cfm
    These are very durable, and they will also supply PPG in an aerosol can for the color coat.
    Or you could use ColorRite's three step (primer-color-clear) paint system for motorcycles for example:

    Either will give a very long lasting finish.
