Roll on Keel Guard

[Bert1]

Has anybody tried using the roll-on or paint-on or spray-on bedliner material as Keel Guard on a fiberglass boat (gelcoated).

No but you would have to rough the glass up pretty good to get the chemical bond to hold enough for it to be worth it.

Bert1, I havn't done it but I may try it. The way I would accomplish this is to mask off the what I wanted to coat, lightly sand then epoxy prime a couple coats, apply bedliner of choice. If it doesn't work you can then sand off the primer and buff the gelcoat for a newlike finish again. just a thought

That might work but it is hard to get in a light color. Then from what I read the light colors are not UV resistant. Some of the darker colors fade and flake too.<br /><br />If only I could get a Qt of white or off white.<br /><br />It needs 3 things-<br /><br />1. U.V. resistant.<br />2. Smooth and thick, appy with brush or roller.<br />3. Available in white or off white.<br /><br />There has got to be sombody that has this for less than 1000 dollars!!!! Hopefully under $20-$30.<br /><br />If it cost 100 dollars I am going with a KeelGuard.
