When I bought my boat in VA, The previous owner painted the boat with automotive paint. (He was a body repairman) The paint is very fragile. It was cracking, chipping and peeling everywhere! Last year, I had the boat stripped to it's gel coat and repainted with IMRON. Much more durable and expensive! After two summers, it survived very well.
Just thought I let you know my experience about paint.
You can use a gel coat but it is wicked expensive!
