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

• Inaccurate surface cleaning before paint application,
• Incorrect painting tools preparation (brush and roll),
• Performing work in a place exposed to constant contact with dust.

How to prevent

• Careful surface preparation (grinding, clearing, degreasing),
• Careful painting tools preparation before use,
• Maintain clean work environment

How to remove

• Grind, clean and paint again.

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.
