    Thinning notice:

    In the case of high temperatures and the need to thin the antifouling paint, a maximum dilution of 0-5% (by volume) is recommended.
    Dilution and the application method directly affect the thickness of the antifouling paint layer.

    Special attention should be paid to obtaining a specific coating thickness (100 μm DTF), which ensures the effective operation of the antifouling paint.

    Our FAQ answers to frequently asked questions

    Can I use universal thinner?

    We do not recommend using universal thinners. The use of a thinner with an unknown composition may result in loss of adhesion, lack of proper flow of paint and varnish defects.

    Can I use selfpolishing Sea-Line and HARD Sea-Line antifoulings on aluminium boat?

    Sea-Line HARD and Sea-Line self-polishing antifouling are not intended for aluminum surfaces. They include copper oxide, which in contact with aluminum causes galvanic corrosion. Especially on aluminum, we offer ALU-PLUS self-polishing anti-fouling paint, which, in addition to excellent adhesion to aluminum, is also 30% more effective than traditional anti-fouling paints.

    Why despite the use of antifouing paint the bottom of the boat is overgrown?

    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.
