In Response To: Brightside vs. Interthane Plus (John Stys)

I just rolled on two coats of Brightsides on my Ches 17LT and it LOOKS great. However, I have to agree with other posts that it is not as hard as I would like and it will chip easily. I will use this quart for repairs and touch-ups until it is gone. If I haven't sold the boat by then I will probably sand down and try the two part paint.

The finish is super glossy and I was really impressed (temp at application was about 63 F) how well it went on; just not as tough as I had hoped.

My two cents worth.
