There are a lot of choices in topside marine paints, however, Pettit is an industry leader that creates superior marine grade products for all your marine finishing needs. That is why Wholesale Marine recommends the Pettit Easypoxy line of topside marine paints. Pettit Easypoxy paint is a great choice for areas above the waterline, as well as for refinishing decks.

A high gloss paint, Pettit EZ Poxy has ultraviolet filters to ensure that the paint is durable and effective at providing a brilliant shine. Another plus: the finish is also fade-resistant over time. Easypoxy applies quickly using a roll and top method so that even a novice painter can achieve amazing results.

Fiberglass Application System

Non-Fiberglass Surface Preparation

Bare Wood:

• Sand surface smooth with 80-120 grit sandpaper, then solvent clean with Pettit 120 Thinner to remove residue.
• Fill all screw heads or small holes with 7050 EZ-Fair Epoxy Fairing Compound; sand flush and solvent clean with Pettit 120 Thinner.
• Apply a coat of 2018 EZ WoodSealer to penetrate and seal the porous grain. Follow with one or two coats of 6149 EZ Prime until an evenly smooth base condition is reached; sand each coat with 80-120 grit sandpaper and solvent clean with Pettit 120 Thinner.
• Proceed with the first finish coat of Pettit Easypoxy.
• Bare wood that has been epoxied must be thoroughly scrubbed with an ammonia/water solution then sanded with 120 grit sandpaper and solvent cleaned with Pettit 120 Thinner.
• Follow with a coat of 6149 EZ Prime to smooth the surface and provide a uniform base.
• Sand well and solvent clean with Pettit 120 Thinner, then proceed with the first coat of Easypoxy.

Application Notes

• Applying two or more coats of EZ Poxy topside marine paint in one day is not recommended. Nor is applying excessively heavy films (greater than 4 wet mils) as this will lead to insufficient through-drying of the paint and will yield soft paint films.
• Do not apply EZ Poxy Paint on extremely humid days (90°+ RH) or when rain is threatening.
• Do not apply in the late afternoon when working outdoors as the wet film may be adversely affected by dew.
• When working in cooler temperatures be sure the air and surface temperatures will remain at or above 50°F for at least 8 hours after application.
