Seems like it would be a little expensive. Once that can is activated, you gotta use it all. Cool idea but I think I will continue to mix it as needed.

Expensive! When I checked for one of my boats, the only choices were $80 & $100. That might work for a large repair, but not for the small dings & scratches I have.

Not gonna match my boat since it goes back before 1984, but I'd like to know what the finish is like on this. Is there something built in that helps it settle without orange peel? Or do you still have to do all the normal stuff to get a smooth finish?
How many of these cans would it take to re-do a deck, for example? Would this simplify the decision of paint vs. gel coat for re-doing a deck? If you still had to jump through hoops to get a smooth finish, it's no different from mixing your own. But if it comes out smooth and ready to buff, that would be pretty cool!
