TotalBoat Marine Topside Boat Paint Primer for Fiberglass and Wood (White), 1 Gallon (Pack of 1)

Excellent product but do not buy it from Amazon. If they send the correct color chances are the packaging is so poor it will be leaking.

Adheres well to lightly sanded fiberglass or wood. Provides excellent base coat for Totalboat paint.

The media could not be loaded. We used this product on our large front porch. It faces northwest and gets all the worst of the weather here. The porch was new pressure treated wood primed with two heavy coats of the same brand primer and allowed to dry thoroughly. The final paint coat went on smoothly and quickly, like butter, with no issues whatsoever. The one coat coverage was amazing! It has dried to a beautiful hard glossy finish. To the touch it almost feels like hard plastic. Other than the high price we have no complaints. However on our old porch we had used other high end brands such as Sherwin Williams and it would still peel after only a year or two. We are hopeful that this product applied correctly will outperform the others. Only time will tell I guess. I would definitely recommend trying it if you can stomach the cost. I’m hopeful it will payoff in the long term.

Used on the interior decking and gunwales of an open fiberglass dory. Went on easy with a quality roller (don't get the cheap foam ones - this stuff will start degrading those very quickly). Covered the original tan painted gunwales and the raw fiberglass deck with one coat, then applied three coats of Total Boat Wet-Edge topside in white (could have gotten away with two but we had enough for three) . A lot of sandy teenagers in and out and unsecured gear bouncing around in choppy seas with no chips or scratches. Time will tell, but I'm impressed so far.

Not a good choice for Plywood on a dock. I used this under Topside's TotalTread non-skid. Had a few places on my dock come off in 1" strips. I had talked to Topside before I used this product and they said it would be fine. I don't think they are that knowledgeable. They said when I called back that "maybe" a 2 part epoxy primer would be better. I think what happened is the moisture content of the plywood was higher in these areas. I am going to strip the areas that are coming off and use a water base "Deck Start Wood Primer" by Rustolium. This is a Polyurethane material as is the Totaltread non-skid. Rustolium claims that the adhesion is good even when added over damp conditions.

I might be have total boat is the product to go regardless of what you're doing paint I got the best two component paint epoxy thickeners all around excellent product don't go cheap if you want quality work

Total boat primer and paint is hust one of the best paints out there
