Can you use latex paint on a boat?

Using latex paint on a boat is generally not recommended, particularly for the hull, as it may not provide adequate protection against water, UV rays, and harsh marine conditions. While latex paint can be used for interior surfaces or on areas that don’t come into direct contact with water, marine-grade paints specifically designed for boats are preferred for durability and longevity. Always check manufacturer guidelines and consider the specific needs of your boat before choosing a paint type.
