Well, didn't check this post as often as I should have. Just prepped (with Interlux Fiberglass Prep) and scuffed (w/120 grit sandpaper), and three cotas of Petit Hydracoat. No epoxy barrier. Wish I had read further first, but will see how it goes. Boat will be sitting for long periods on a mooring in Maine.

I'll repost in the fall with my results.

How long does it take to get blistering, and what does one do about it.
