Flat or low gloss topside paint

Post by Dan_Smullen »

For some interior compartments that may be visible or not, I’m looking for a light gray paint that covers as well as, and looks the same as, Silver Tip YP. How effective is Silver Tip as a finish coat? Any other brand recommendations?

My favorite paint is SW pre-catalyzed epoxy; it has best non-yellowing of their epoxies.

It is like a semi-gloss. Most internal stuff in white is nice for the light.

The SW precat is hospital wall paint..washes well, doesn't scratch. Much nicer 'feel' than primer. And I am using the primer on parts these days.
