I'm sure some of you out there have worked with both the pool paint and the resin.
Honestly I find the paint more appealing, number 1, its safer and easier to find locally (I keep running into online marine stores that need credit, and I don't have that card), and number 2, it *seems less likely to catch on fire, as I would like to mix the paint with some kind of stuff like peat to make it not look shiny and offer some texture. I have taken in to consideration Bondo brand epoxy from lowes, but not sure if I trust the offgassing of styrene...but I believe that is only for fiberglass.
Has anybody tried to mix the paint with additives like sand and peat?
Also, there's that Porcelein two part epoxy paint for bath tubs by Liquid nails at Home Depot, that I believe Homer said works just fine. There's also some earthy looking Epoxy Shield by Rustoleum.
Correct me if I'm wrong, (I obviously know jack sh*t about chemicals, and that is why I keep asking so many questions, sorry :lol: ) but any two part epoxy formula that cures with a enamel coating is 100% waterproof and doesn't leach?
