Painting wood

12/01/2002 12:53

I am about to re-paint the coach house and wheel house sides on my Rampart. They are made of marine ply. I have received advice from a boat builder that a good external house paint such as Dulux would be OK. Has anybody got experience/views on this? I have removed all the old paint and varnish and am now back to bare wood. Is it worth spending extra and using one of the proprietary yacht paints. Mon or poly urethane?

The Rampart will be used mainly on the inland waters of Ireland so I'll really just need protection from rain and fresh water.

Thanks
