Coat It versus Wetlander

[Steve S]

I need to replace the Coat It finish on the bottom of my aluminum pram. The Coat It has been durable and held up well but I knocked a few large sheets of it off and someone mentioned a product called Wetlander as a replacement. Does anyone have any firsthand experience with Wetlander versus Coat It or Gluv-It?

Wetlander is very durable and way more slippery over rocks

Weylander is used , by airboats, in Florida and there is lots of stuff on the web about it. Big cost difference between the two. One think to consider is UV resistance. I used to use Gluvit on my jet sled, drift boats, and prams. If the sun hit it it lasted about two seasons. Coat it is much more resistant thus over the long term more cost efficient. I'd check out Welanders UV resistance before spending the extra money.
