I use an anti-fouling bottom paint. Probabaly the same/similar properties
as the marine paint.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Hex Beam Fiberglass Spreader Paint?
There was some discussion on the top-band reflector the other day regarding
a station in Europe that put up a Shared Apex Loop Array with a fiberglass
mast. He used marine fiberglass paint to protect the fiberglass.
The good thing is that marine paint should be easy to find in FL :) Find a
good boat shop and tell them what you're doing. I'm sure you'll get some
good advice.
