It took two gallons of Interlux 2000E to cover the bottom, rudder and prop. The first coat is supposed to use more than subsequent coats. My guess is that the next coat will take 1-1/2 gallons. The 1/4" length nap roller-covers work great. A paint brush is miserable to use--the material goes on too thick.. Pinhole voids are a real problem. A bunch of time was spent eliminating them. We put a good paint masking tape along the top of the of the old bootstripe. Another layer of tape, that'll be removed after each coat of 2000E, will extend downward from the bootstripe tape. The ridge left from the 2000E/tape interface will be sanded off before the next layer of 2000E is applied.
