    Dear all,

    I'm searching a tape or a paint to mark the waterline on a wooden boat.
    Problem is, I want to use RAL 9006 (aluminum silver). Didn't find anything but blue, red, orange green or white. Any recommendations? Anything that can be obtained in The Nethetlands/ Europe?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sander

    SeaSpark -

    Water line coating.

    We have a boat in holland and used tape and transparent antifauling on it (think it was from international) both did not give good results. Normal paint suited for marine use and a regular cleaning worked the best for us.

    Thanks! The problem is, I want to use RAL9006 specific, which is a metalic color. I think I have to use a PU based paint system I guess.
