The single use suits are not as necessary as you think though, good
protection is. Screw the Scott air tank. Positive pressure provided by a
dedicated compressor is much better. Those Scott tanks get in the way, and
get heavy. Obviously, you've never spent any amount of time with one on
your back.

You also need a Devilbiss JG gun with a remote pressure pot for best
results.


Surely you jest. Have you moved on past the 90's Lew?



There is a reason boat yards charge upwards of $200/ft of length when
they shoot an LP job on a boat.


Yup - they have a license to steal.
