TotalBoat Wet Edge is a one-part, high-gloss polyurethane topside finish. This thick, rich topside paint is easy to apply and has excellent coverage characteristics. Advanced UV stabilizers ensure high gloss and color retention. Choose from 22 popular colors in quarts or gallons.
Wet Edge is easy to clean, resists staining, & has incredible abrasion resistance. Our unique urethane formula provides superior adhesion and flexibility, allowing the natural expansion and contraction of your boat's hull without causing the finish to lift or crack. Elasticity provides longer life and increased durability over leading marine one-part enamels.
Brush, roll & tip, or spray on fiberglass, wood, or previously painted surfaces above the waterline. For best results, prepare surfaces with TotalBoat Topside Primer.
Select colors are now available in pints, perfect for boot stripes.

- IMPORTANT APPLICATION INFORMATION!
TotalBoat Wet Edge should only be rolled with a solvent safe 1/8" foam roller, designed for leaving glossy surfaces without any stipple or lint. This includes products such as ArroWorthy Mighty Mini rollers, or foam rollers that fit on regular paint roller frames.
Nap rollers: We do not recommend using nap rollers to apply Wet Edge, as they will leave small hairs as well as a stippled effect in the paint that will stand out once it cures, and will generally lay down too much paint for a proper cure.
TotalBoat Wet Edge Topside Paint is not designed for continuous submersion on boat bottoms that remain in the water longer than 72 hours.

We painted the hull of our Beneteau and it looks amazing! Excellent customer service when I called in with questions. The paint rolled on very well and dried evenly with no streaks or sagging.

Paint wont dry, did everything right, been doing this for decades and never had this problem. Have fans on it well, still just as tacky. This is a work boat between this and the snail slow delivery, i am missing too much work and in a bind now. Not sure the paint will ever dry at this point. The parts in the sun are dry, temps are mid 60s here in San Diego. I have about $500 bucks invested to totalboat paint and primer and don't even want to crack open another can at this point. Will reach out to customer service but between the primer not covering even half of what they claim, the super slow delivery and now paint that wont dry, imthink it is time to cut my loses. I will miss next weeks work as well so will be out thoisamds of dollars because totalboat seems to be a total fail.

Myself and my son did a major overhaul on my Cape Horn center console. We used all Total Boat products, There products are awesome from resin to paints. Took us 2 and half months to complete but now it looks a factory job

This paint was used on my custom car trailer. It was the perfect color (Flag Blue). I had originally bought Rustoleum Royal Blue, and it turned out to be way too light a shade. I wanted a strong blule color. When dry, this paint is really tough. So don't get it where you don't want it, because you will work to get it off. This looks like it will last a very long time.
