alkyd enamel. Ducolax or some such thing.

My next (easy?) project will be to paint the interiors of all
lockers and cubbies. Does anyone have any recommendations for the
best paint to use?

Adam, ducolax is a serious laxative, not paint.

explains why my laxative tastes so bad. (still works though)

We’ve have been using Pettit dura white in our interior hull areas where we
removed the foam backed vinyl lining.

I agree…. The white Bilgekote paint is great. Plan on two coats.

Two years ago we using Pettit Dura White to re-due are lockers. Its waterdase and mildew proof. We also used Kilz white pigment primer, sealer in our head to coverup the oil (Yellow/Green/Silver) vinyl wall covering, we then painted it with (soft blue) Bear Satin Interion paint that was also mildew proof. It still looks good.

Pat brings up a point I wanted to ask before painting the cubbies. Is there
any reason that the foam backed material was used other than it is easy to
spray glue and roll out?
I have used a surface prep called Will Bond followed with Kilz and gloss
white from Lowe’s. Looks great but only one year old. I used this in the
cubbies behind the setee that were already white. Now it’s time to do the
ones that I stripped the foam out of. It would be easy to put back a
similar material but it seem to encourage mildew by holding moisture. Any
thoughts would be great.

You painted the old wall paper? How much paint did it soak up? That sounds
a lot easier than the alternative. Mine is a brown, green, blue that you
had to be deep into the 70’s to enjoy. Maybe on a mental health day the
colors went together better.

They used that because it’s cheap.
If you pull it down you are likely to find a lot of mold back there. We did.

I removed the old vinyl wall paper from the fwd bulkhead and around the door and left the area around the shower untouched. Removing the vinyl is EZ /its the glue that’s the killer. I did this because the vinyl wall covering seams were starting to open and the old vinyl looked like hell (or the 70’s which is about the same thing). Anyway I filled any rough areas of the wood paneling with a marine filler (body putty) and sanded it smooth with about 220 grit. My wife got the job of painting both the wood paneling and the area I did not remove of vinyl. The Kilz is a killer in a small area but it let us use the Bahr over both the vinyl and wood. The vinyl she painted over does look the best to me as it has some texture to it. We also updated all the hardware in the head with new (The boat now has better towel holders than the house)

After removing all the wallpaper, we used Rustoleum single part epoxy paint (bright white). 2 coats. We used the gloss finish as it reflects light back into the cabin. I’m not sure how to post a picture, but I did put some on our flickr account.
