Craftsmen's Corner / Re: Hull Protection

Hi everyone,
I spent about 75 dollars on Jb Weld to do mine and it lasted almost a year..... it is all peeled off now and I am thinking of trying rustoleum truck bed using their activator....saw it some where on youtube..... probably will not hold up well either and may reinstall my kydex for the bow and just fill all the many many scratches with ptex. At least it is not as pricey as jb and looks to be easier to install.
good thing my kayak is built thick.... Old town sportsman.... but boy is it heavy.
If anyone knows of a better way to protect the hull I would love to hear about it. But for me the Jb is not the way....too $$$ and too tough to apply.
