I used 1.5 - 2 gallons on my 30MKI Depending on the year and how much of the old stuff I took off. Two good coats and a third on the waterline and leading edges of the keel/hull/ruddder would still be less than two gallons on Ultra. That paint worked out great for me. I switched to petit because

Curtis, I use a gallon of Hydrocoat (it is thick) each time I paint. It barely covers – one coat. I, like others, paint the waterline, keel leading edge, rudder first and then fill in while spreading the paint out. The old paint does not leach away on the flat parts of the middle hull, but does

Hi Curtis, You'll probably need 5 litres. I use about 6 litres. Sucks, yes. On the bright side, if you had the larger boat you would need 9 litres. :) Cheers, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 At 07:39 PM 09/01/2016, you wrote: Interlux Ultra with Biolux. How much paint should I need to pa

I've always needed just over 1gal to do a complete job.  Maybe I could do it thinner, but I don't think so.  When I try to get by with one gallon, I paint the first third completely, the leading edge of the keel, the complete rudder and the first foot of depth.  Then I do a very light and incomp

1 gallon will probably be sufficient. I buy 2 for my 37+ and I usually have plenty for a second coat on the leading edges and the waterline and still have left over. The cans often have advice on the square footage of coverage per can. Josh Muckley S/V Sea Hawk 1989 C&C 37+ Solomons, MD On Jan 9,
