[ham] [Rhodes22-list] Stan, will the real paint stand up?

[Michael Meltzer]

freah water does not a problem with hard growth, just zebra musles, the grasses and slime are more of the a problem, most of the
hight rated paints will work, the thought problem are salt/brackish water. it is a hard paint, the "sr" version is a big plus in
this case, alittle overkill for freash water.
