HEMPEL'S Hempaspeed TF is a hard, biocide-free thin-layer coating for all sports boats with GRP, steel or aluminum hulls, including regatta and trailer boats. Thanks to the special hydrogel technology, it forms an ultra-smooth surface that minimizes fouling and also reduces friction. Suitable for fresh, salt and brackish water as well as inland areas. Particularly recommended in areas where the use of biocides is prohibited or restricted (also in the Netherlands). Application on existing antifouling layer: It is possible to switch from a conventional antifouling to Hempaspeed TF. The old coating (if still intact) does not need to be removed. A coat of HEMPEL Conversion Primer should be applied as an adhesion primer, followed by two coats of Hempaspeed TF.Application as a new coating: When applying a new coating, the substrate must first be sealed with HEMPEL Light Primer before applying HEMPEL Conversion Primer and two coats of Hempaspeed TF.Note: The effectiveness of biocide-free underwater coatings depends on the area of operation and the boat's sailing characteristics. Regular inspection of the hull during the season is recommended. Any fouling that occurs can be minimized by gentle cleaning with a sponge or soft brush.Technical DataArea of use: For fresh and saltwater with medium fouling; mechanical cleaning may be necessary in high fouling areasBoat type: For sport and racing boats, suitable for high-speed vesselsSubstrate: GRP, steel, aluminium; suitable over existing antifouling in good conditionPrimer: HEMPEL Conversion PrimerCoverage: 11 m²/lThinner: HEMPEL'S Thinner 808Application method: Brush, roller, airless spray (professional use)Drying times: Touch dry after 30 min at 10 °C; recoatable after 8 hrs at 10 °CRefloating time (time between painting and launching): 24 hrs to 3 monthsFurther information on processing can be found in the technical data sheet under “Downloads”.

HEMPEL LIGHT PRIMER is a high-quality two-component primer based on epoxy resin for underwater and above-water applications. It serves as a good barrier against penetrating water vapor on rigid substrates, for osmosis prevention and repair on GRP and as corrosion protection on metals. It can also be used on plywood and hardwood. Suitable for interior and exterior use above and below the waterline, as well as for coating keels and rudders.Within the specified recoating intervals, LIGHT PRIMER can also be recoated directly with a subsequent product without intermediate sanding. The surface should be almost dry, but still slightly tacky. For a subsequent coat of antifouling, a coat of HEMPEL UNDERWATER PRIMER (Art.

HEMPEL CONVERSION Primer is a two-component epoxy resin-based adhesion primer. It was developed to facilitate the change from conventional antifoulings to the biocide-free thin-film antifouling HEMPASPEED TF from HEMPEL. The primer can be applied to existing antifoulings (including International VC-17m) as well as to one- and two-component primers, provided the surface is intact and stable. Caution: The primer does NOT provide corrosion protection, but merely acts as an adhesion promoter. Prime uncoated surfaces with a corrosion protection primer beforehand.

Before every painting and protection job, a proper and professional cleaning of the surface is necessary. This highly effective cleaner removes oil, grease, fuel, and even silicone residues reliably from painted or GRP finishes. Not intended for cleaning raw wood.

HEMPEL's SILIC ONE propeller kit is an innovative, biocide-free coating for propellers with technological properties that ensure less frictional resistance and the best possible fouling protection.SILIC ONE is a copper- and biocide-free fouling release coating system based on silicone and hydrogel. Polymers in the coating react with water on the surface and form an invisible protective layer, a so-called hydrogel, between the hull surface and the water. For microorganisms, this layer is perceived as a liquid, so that they do not attach themselves to the hull in the first place. On the other hand, the micro-rough structure and the smooth surface tension prevent fouling organisms from becoming firmly anchored, so that they fall off again through manual cleaning or when moving quickly through the water.Suitable for fresh, salt and brackish water as well as inland areas. Particularly recommended in areas where biocides may not be used or only to a limited extent (also in the Netherlands).The Propller-Kit consists of:1x 375 ml SilicOne TieCoat,1x 375 ml SilicOne in blackImportant: Please note that the propeller must be free of any old paint/antifouling. We recommend that you adhere very closely to the processing instructions and recoating intervals in the application data sheet.For first time coating it is recommended to use HEMPEL Light Primer, which you have to order seperately.Note: The effectiveness of biocide-free underwater coatings depends on the area of operation and the boat's sailing characteristics. Regular inspection of the hull during the season is recommended. Any fouling that occurs can be minimized by gentle cleaning with a sponge or soft brush.Technical DataArea of use: for waters with light to medium fouling pressureBoat type: For sailing and motorboats; specifically suited for propellers and underwater fittingsSubstrate: Applicable only over HEMPEL Silic One Tiecoat; suitable for GRP and steelPrimer: HEMPEL SILIC ONE TIECOATCoverage: 10 m²/lThinner: Do not thinApplication method: Brush, rollerPot life: 60 mins at 20°COvercoating intervall: recoatable with SILIC ONE TIECOAT or itself after 16 hrs at 10°CRefloating time (time between painting and launching): 24 hrs to 1 month at 20 °C

HEMPEL'S ECOPOWER PROP Spray is a biocide-free spray paint for coating propellers, Z-drives and stern drives. Protects against fouling and facilitates cleaning. An advanced binder technology controls the self-renewing effect over the entire season.For use on uncoated surfaces, priming with HEMPEL'S Prop Primer is recommended.For existing, old or traditional antifouling, remove loose material and fouling beforehand. On surfaces with existing, old hard matrix or unknown antifouling, the surface should also be wet-sanded (180 grit). Then clean and dry the surface. If the condition of the previous antifouling layer is poor, seal with a layer of primer (e.g. HEMPELS Prop Primer).Note: The effectiveness of biocide-free underwater coatings depends on the area of operation and the boat's sailing characteristics. Regular inspection of the hull during the season is recommended. Any fouling that occurs can be minimized by gentle cleaning with a sponge or soft brush.Technical dataArea of application: Waters with light to medium fouling conditionsBoat type: motor and sailing boats Surface: all materials, including aluminumSuitable primer: HEMPEL'S Underwater Primer or HEMPEL'S Prop PrimerCoverage: approx. 11 m²/lDilution: noneApplication method: SprayingDrying times at 10°C: Hand dry: 30 minutes, recoatable: n.a.Refloation time (time between painting and launching) at 10°C: min. 24 hours to 1 monthFurther application information can be found in the technical data sheet under “Downloads”.
