TotalBoat TotalProtect Marine Barrier Coat Epoxy Primer - White Gallon

This epoxy barrier coating worked very well and was easy to apply. It provides a strong, even protective layer and feels very durable once cured. I like that it can be used to help protect fiberglass and metal before applying paint or other coatings. Good coverage and professional-looking results. Very satisfied with the quality.

Using this epoxy primer to paint the roof of my school bus. I wanted a great primer for the bus roof and will use the same brand when purchasing the same brand topcoat. Cost more but buy once and cry once so I do not have to do this again. Marine paint is UV resistant.

Love total boat products have used this epoxy on multiple boat restorations is tough as nails, works well with their other products of course follow the instructions on the website and you’ll get a great easy to use product, this product is durable, a great value for the money, but remember poor surface prep no matter the product will always give poor results

I had a rough looking jon boat that needed new interior paint. I just refinished with this prime coat, before doing the final painting. It is not the easiest paint to work with, but if you prepare it goes well and gives great results. I used both a small 2" brush and a 9" roller. As others mentioned, I did a 3:1:1 mix of paint, hardener and thinner. The paint is SUPER THICK in the can, so thinning it down a little in the can will reduce waste and make pouring a little easier. The working time is very long. I had no problem painting the entire interior of the boat, which took more than an hour. Towards the end, the roller does get a little harder to use as it loses absorption. Plan all your work ahead and you'll be happy with this. I used empty water bottles to measure paint, hardener and thinner. I then dumped those into a milk jug with the top cut out and mixed it thoroughly with a mixer attachment on a cordless drill. Doing those steps with make the job go more smoothly.

Used this to seal my boat deck after sanding/fairing/sanding/fairing to reseal the surface prior to installing new marine vinyl. The white color was nice enough, though not a factor in my application. I did NOT attempt to tint the paint. The paint was straightforward to apply according to directions with a short nap roller and laid down nicely to give me a smooth surface for the vinyl install. It set up well and was fully dry at 24 hours dry time as expected with ambient temperatures around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. The surface seemed very hard and I suspect it would hold up well if directly exposed to foot traffic rather than covered. I did have a few high spots (my fault) that needed some spot sanding and the cured paint sanded well without excessive clogging. The areas I sanded were not quite as pretty as the rest of the surfaces but, again, not a concern. Recommended.

I used this paint on a marine-plywood rowing boat. As an epoxy, it bonds well with wood and with scuffed coast of epoxy. This is my below-the-waterline barrier coat and I'm also using it on the interior planks of the dinghy as a waterproof primer. This paint is the consistency of mayonnaise with not much liquid in the container. You'll want an electric drill-powered paint mixer to thoroughly mix the paint and the catalyst. It rolls on thick and easy and doesn't sag but the finish is not smooth like topside paint. Use as-is to protect fiberglass boat hulls. I'll leave it as-is below the waterline but am using two coats so I can sand it smooth and fill with a primer above the waterline before applying topside paint. Also, the directions say to let the paint sit after mixing. Pot life is long so no need to hurry like you would with 5:1 epoxy.

I own a 12' fiberglass boat. One quart ,thinned out properly using Thinner 200, was able to coat the entire inside of the boat twice. So I was able to achieve the recommended coats of 4-5 by using two quarts. I applied with a 9 inch roller with a 3/16" nap. (I didn't tip and roll) All supplies were made by Wooster. Be sure to follow instructions carefully. One side note is to buy a mixer attachment for a drill. The base (paint) is very thick and needs to be mixed thoroughly before mixing with the hardener. Stir for 2 min. Induce 15min ,thin and apply. I have 0 complaints, and will buy again for the next time I need to paint my boat. It's important your roller nap is 3/16" for this two part Primer. Mix the proper amounts and it should go smooth like my experience. Good luck folks. Don't cut corners and get yourself some Wooster supplies .

Great primer for boat hulls, etc Dries to a tough film overnight yet still easy to sand. Says you can’t apply over a 1 part paint, but I used it over dry, sanded Kilz 3 and it was fine. First gallon I purchased from Amazon. I found out the hard way Amazon paint products are not returnable so I looked around. Thats when I found Jamestown Distributors. Same pricing and delivery timing, but included a paint suit, stir stick, roller & pan, roll of tape, and tack cloth, plus’s 10% discount. Not sure of their return policy, but it can’t be worse and the rest is better. Even shipping. Amazons stuff was all dented, Jamestown’s arrived in perfect condition.
