Great topcoat, Capri Blue shouldn't be rolled
The Alexseal topcoat system is great to use, and with patience you can achieve excellent results without spraying. The pigment of some paints tends to separate unless constantly mixed, and have less than optimal results when rolled or brushed. The Capri Blue is unfortunately one of them, and comes out a bit blotchy unless constantly stirred and applied in ultra-thin coats. I wish Alexseal would publish a chart of what paints are suitable for rolling.

Alexseal 501 Top Coat Paint
Paint was pretty decent overall, however I expected it to lay down a little flatter based on the cost/extra work required. I used the Rolling Additive which is supposed to allow you to roll out the paint without tipping with a brush...this ultimately resulted in some orange peal/uneven surface, and the small areas where I DID brush ultimately looked much smoother. I recommend rolling AND tipping/brushing if you are going the non-spray route.
