[Healeys] paints - Imron

I used to use Imron in the late 70's/ early 80's and can say that my
experiences where not that good. Product produces a very smooth, hard finish
but you can't do anything to it should there be any flaws in the paint. Forget
minor repairs for runs or chips. Paint strippers hardly touch the stuff.
Couple that to some of the worst paint fumes that could be generated at the
time, I swore off using it.  Boat repair shops liked using Imron on hulls but
I'm not sure that is still the case.

I saw a frame being painted black with Dupont Imron which I read is a
polyester enamel, what ever that is.
t looked beautiful. I was told it was chosen because it is very hard/chip
esistant. Comments?
