11 months on Mediterranean Sea

“Overall I’m pleased with the antifouling action. It is true that I do not have too much comparison, because this is my first boat and the first paint.

The whole weed descended without major problems Karcher (weak). Most overgrown with water line from the more sunny and rudder blade. On the upper edge of the even appeared crustaceans. It is the only place around the hull where they were. ”

    Our FAQ answers to frequently asked questions

    Can I add some thinner to antifouling paint?

    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).

    Can I paint a boat, previously painted with 1 component paint, with polyurethane?

    It is not recommended to apply 2K paints over 1K paints. 1K and 2K inks differ in their composition and properties, including hardness, chemical resistance and durability. 1K paints are one-component and dry by evaporating the solvent, while 2K paints are two-component and need to be cured by adding a hardener. Applying 2K paint over 1K paint can cause unpredictable chemical reactions and lead to undesirable effects such as dulling, chipping or flaking of the paint. Therefore, always use paints according to the manufacturer’s instructions and do not mix different types of paints. farby zgodnie z instrukcjami producenta i nie mieszać różnych rodzajów farb.
