Loved it.
Looks great on the boat. East to apply and color is as it’s supposed to be.

Poor fouling protection.
Considerable macro algae fouling one month post application.

No anti foulant in this paint.
Bought it because I thought it was bottom paint with anti-foulant but it does not have anti-foulant.

Questions
Can it be used as a freshwater bottom paint
I used it on my outboard brackets thinking it would reduce growth. However, it didn’t appear to reduce growth at all. At this point I’m not really sure it even has any bottom paint qualities since it didn’t seem to deter growth at all.

can it be applied with roller
I used a 1x4 inch foam roller. it worked good for a while until the foam starts to fall apart. I painted the side of my boat and probably went through 4 rollers. If I do it again i would try a different type of roller, as I have brushed this product on before and that method was not ideal either. Find a roller made to withstand use with a Lacquer based paint.
