Not really, but I was looking at some of the stick on keel guards cause that's what I need, but curiosity begs me to ask, what if I taped off the keel area and sprayed it with Bedliner? Yeah...I'm a noob
Re: I'm going to paint my boat with Bedliner spray!
Hi Clete_T. You can probably get away with an abrasion resistant coating along the keel. I've seen several people do it on small, low hp boats. The trick will be selecting the right brand. I believe that Line-X is now making a marine coating for above water applications that may work below the water line as well. You should only need a small strip along the keel. Any more would probably cause excess drag on the hull and provide an environment for plant/animal growth.
