Clearance offer reflects an additional 25% off the lowest price for in-store pick up only.
Get the look of a two-part polyurethane with the application ease of a standard enamel.
An uncomplicated alternative to two-part paints, Brightside® is a hard, high-gloss, one-part polyurethane topside finish with excellent abrasion and chemical resistance. It is easy to apply and has a self-leveling formula that with the right technique (roll and tip) renders results that approximate the “sprayed-on” look of two-part finishes.
Brightside contains fluoro-micro additives which resist staining, add to abrasion resistance and make it easy to clean. It also boasts UV stabilizers that help to maintain gloss and color retention. Available in a range of bright, crisp colors. Brightside is for use above the waterline only.
