Hello all. I am getting ready to paint the hardtop on my 40. Anyone have a recommendation for the best paint to use? Looking for a clean smooth satin white finish.

Beautiful! I'm never too great with gloss for some reason. Always gets blotchy on me. Maybe if i color sand and buff after. Any clear coat? Or just straight white? I'm wafflling on white or off white. My cruiser is light blue. Top was bright white. I actually think the previous owner did it with roof coating .... it was sand finish. Going smooth now.I did Rustoleum gloss white on mine and also the bezel. Used 6 cans for 4 thick coats on each. I like the contrast of the bright white and the green body paint plus gloss white looks more like the original gel coating to me.

Straight white over grey primer. I had a couple blotchy spots I didn't like at first. I put turtle wax over it a few months later after it fully cured and it hid them well.Beautiful!
