The guy who did the Awlcraft spray job on my Roamer was the painter at Weaver Boatworks for 15 years. He's sprayed Awlgrip, Awlcraft, Imron, and Alexseal on dozens of high-end sportfishermen. He recently said that there's a noticeable loss of gloss with Alexseal. Awlgrip holds the shine longest but can't be patch repaired. Awlcraft is next regarding shine retention, but it can be color-sanded and buffed and even patch repaired. As Jim mentioned, Awlgrip products also roll and tip very nicely.
