I have a Kingscraft. Should the outer cabin be painted gloss or matt?

Gloss is also a little easier to clean.

I am so glad to hear that someone else has a Kings Craft, we are re habbing one now
and hope to have in the water by spring time, regarding paint we are going to go with
the gloss, reason being, it cleans up so much nicer then the matte.  Where are you
located? we are on Kentucky Lake, we hve a 73 44' and have really done a re hab on
her.  Hope to hear from you again.  Fred and Sharon
