[Rhodes22-list] Paint

[Wally Buck]

Brad,

I have seen a couple of boats in my marina that were painted by owners using 
roll and tip. All of them looked pretty good and one looked great.

Also boars hair brushes used to be fairly common, I would think Home Depot 
would carry. For non marine paint I tend to by the cheap brushes and dispose 
of when done. When using varnish I use good brushes, they seem to leave less 
brush strokes. I would imagine this is why they suggest the boars hair 
brush.
