Plastic Sanding Block

We recommend to always sand the surface between applying two different products to ensure uniform surface roughness and adhesion of subsequent layers. The sanded surface should also be cleaned and degreased.

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.

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.
