This antifouling is recommended to use on racing boat and powerboats, guaranteeing a smooth finish.
The hard and smooth film, achieved at easy application without sanding between coats, increased speed and efficiently.
Fast drying it’s quick overcoating and flexible launch times.
Easy in application, no need to sand between coats, increased speed and efficiently.
Thinning is not recommended because it reduces the effectiveness of the paint.

Our FAQ answers to frequently asked questions

Yes, you can paint the bottom of the boat with polyurethane paint due to its high mechanical strength. We recommend this solution when the boat is not launched for a long time and is not exposed to fouling.

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.

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.
