BOATSHOW 2016

There is a possibility of thinning antifouling, but we do not recommend this procedure due to the risk of reducing the effectiveness of the paint. If it is necessary to thin the antifouling paint, it is recommended to dilute it to a maximum of 0-5% (by volume).

Possible causes

• Too thin layer of antifouling paint,
• Choosing the wrong antifouling to type of a boat or yacht
• Thinning of antifouling paint,
• Incorrect surface preparation before antifouling application.

How to prevent

• Apply the right layer thickness of paint indicated by manufacturer,
• Choose antifouling dedicated to type of boat or yacht and suitable for the type of water,
• Do not thin antifouling because of the risk of reducing effectiveness,
• Careful surface preparations (grinding, clearing, degreasing),

How to remove

• Wet grinding, apply new layers of antifouling paint.
• Use C1 shell and fouling remover.

Possible causes

• Too low temperature of ambitne,
• Incorrect proportion of base and herdener,
• Mixing two components from two different manufacturers

How to prevent

• Apply the correct proportions of components
• Maintain steady temperature (around 20ﹾC) during whole hardening process,
• Mix the products thoroughly and bleed the mixture.

How to remove

• The uncured mass requires complete removal from the surface.
