Rob~ Any of your Modified Epoxies will be plenty hard enough to scrub and still do the job. i.e Pettit Trinidad SR, WM Bottomschield, Interlux Ultra. If "your problem" was "my problem" I would use TrinidadSR.

Andrew~ The most important part of a "marine" speaker is that the magnets are shielded. You can use any speakers inside, but keep them away from compasses and other nav equipment. Cheapo speakers cones are made out of paper that "suck" up H2O and get crackly sounding fast. Marine grade...

Hope this isnt keeping you up all night. Nonononono, just making me wake up way too early.:egrin:

To those who have painted the rubrail insert, did you completely remove it from the channel and prep and paint both sides? Also, while the insert was removed, did you also tape off and paint the mounted channel with the same paint? My rubrail also is very chalky and needs attention and this...
