Has anyone experienced problems or have any hints for success
with overcoating and/or touching up the copolymers like Micron33 ?
I have some rubs on an otherwise sound bottom that need a couple
touchup coats in places. I asked the International folks who
recommended I wash down the bottom with a solvent like Fiberglass
Wash and do the whole bottom - in otherwords buy a gallon instead
of a quart.

I have used Micron33 for 3 years. I have never had a problem with
overcoating. Wash the surface with water to remove dirt. If you
use a solvent, you'll remove the paint and have to redo the bottom.
I suppose if I was selling bottom paints, I would recommend redoing
the bottom.

Thanks for the reassurance. I finally decided to wipe over the
areas needing repainting with 202 solvent wash (very lightly as
it turned out) and go for about 3 coats in the areas that needed
touchup due to scratches and wear. That took less than a quart.
The boat has been in for 2 weeks now, we shall see how well it does.
