| Preparation |
PREVIOUSLY ANTIFOULED SURFACE:
In Good Condition: Rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. If old coating is incompatible or unknown, seal with Primocon.
In Poor Condition: Use Interstrip AF to remove all traces of antifouling.
PRIMING: All preparation for bare substrates is covered on the appropriate primer datasheet.
BARE GRP: Gelshield 200 for osmosis protection, or Primocon.
STEEL/IRON: Prime with Interprotect or Primocon.
LEAD: Etch Primer followed by Primocon.
WOOD: Prime with Interprotect or Primocon. |
|
|
| Method |
Apply
2 coats per season on the hull. 3 coats are required on the leading and
trailing edges, waterline, rudder and keel. This is important for best
performance. Note: Maximum Time to Immersion is 3 months. If the
coating is left for more than 3 months, the surface should be high
pressure fresh water washed prior to immersion. |
|
|
| Hints |
Mixing Stir well before use.

Airless Spray Pressure: 176-210 bar. Tip Size: 2180.
Other For
Airmix spray application: Pressure: 2.5 bar. Tip Size: 20-113. Take
care to apply all the paint calculated even if it means applying an
extra coat. It is important for performance to apply the correct
thickness. |

|
| Some Important Points |
To
prevent premature failure, ensure the correct amount of paint is
applied using the coverage as a guide. Product temperature should be
minimum 5°C/41°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Ambient temperature should be
minimum 5°C/41°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Substrate temperature should be
minimum 1°C/5°F above dew point and maximum 35°C/95°F. |
