    He used a spray paint called Krylon Fusion that you can find in many hardware and home improvement stores, or order online.
    It holds quite well on Polyethylene, which is a difficult material to paint.

    Wow, I really love that camo paint job.
    I can see I’ll be busy painting my W W come spring.
    Great Blog Yoav, and even a greater yak. :)

    Thanks Rox,
    Jo did this paint job several months ago and he waited a long time before he sent me pictures of it because he wanted to see if the paint held on to the boat (Jo is a pro :-) ). Apparently it does, although from a close distance you’ll notice scratches, but those can be easily covered with fresh paint.
