Possible causes

• Too thin layer of antifouling paint,
• Choosing the wrong antifouling to type of a boat or yacht
• Thinning of antifouling paint,

• 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

• Incorrect proportion of base and herdener,
• Too low temperature of ambient and surface (less than 10ﹾC),
• Mixing two components from two different manufacturers,

How to prevent

• Apply the correct proportions of components
• Maintain steady temperature (around 20ﹾC) during the whole hardening process,
• Use base and hardener from the same manufacturer

How to remove

• The uncured mass requires complete removal from the surface.

Yes, you can mix Sea-Line polyurethane paints. The only difference are the pigments of polyurethane paints that determine the color of the paint. But remember to keep the right proportions of base, hardener and thinner.
