LeFANT T-COAT is a biocide-free coating for underwater hulls based on epoxy resin. It forms a hard, smooth surface that makes it difficult for growth such as algae to adhere and also protects the hull from moisture penetration. LeFANT T-COAT is free of silicones and metals and is suitable for all waters. If fouling adheres to the surface, it can be easily removed mechanically using cleaning sponges, brushes or hull cleaning systems.
Technical data
- Area of application: Waters with light to medium fouling
- Boat type: fast motor and sailing boats, trailer boats
- Materials (with primer): GRP/plastic, steel, aluminum
- Coverage: 4-6m²/l
- Dilution: None
- Pre-treatment: Existing antifouling and one-component paints must be completely removed. Existing epoxy systems in good condition can be retained. For better adhesion and sealing of porous, sandblasted or rough surfaces and for recoating, an epoxy-based primer, such as LEFANT Epoxy Primer, is recommended (first coat diluted with 20-30% LEFANT Multi-Thinner).
- Application method: Brush or roller
- Application temperature: Minimum 7 °C, an ideal application temperature is 15-25 °C. To improve conditions for application at lower temperatures, use for example a heating element that can be placed close to the surface and then place the paint can in a bath of heated water.
- Application: Mix the primer with the desired color additive, add hardener and stir thoroughly. One paint pot contains 55 ml of paint and is sufficient for a 750 ml can. 2-3 coats (approx. 100 microns/coat) are recommended for a new structure, 3-4 coats for the color white. For a particularly smooth “racing surface”, the hardened surface can be sanded smooth with wet sandpaper.

LEFANT Epoxy primer
From
€52.00 *
The LEFANT Epoxy Primer is specially designed for underwater use and can be applied to gelcoat, plastic, steel, aluminum, Z-drives and propellers. The two-component epoxy resin-based primer is suitable for the pre-treatment of antifoulings such as LEFANT T-Coat, it is oil and chemical resistant, protects the hull against the penetration of moisture and thus prevents osmosis. Thanks to the long overcoating intervals, it is easy to apply and cures even at low temperatures (min. 5 °C). Available in white or black.Application on painted substrates: Old one-component coatings and primers should be removed, two-component primers in good condition can be roughly sanded (grain size 60-80). Then clean thoroughly. If necessary, level out uneven areas with epoxy filler.When recoating steel hulls, the surface should be sandblasted or roughly sanded and painted with a thinned coat of epoxy primer (20-30% thinned with Lefant Multi-Thinner) immediately after sanding. Then apply up to three further coats and level out any unevenness and imperfections with filler.Technical DataSubstrate: GRP, steel, aluminium, plywood, existing 2C epoxy primersSurface preparation:GRP: remove release agents, sand (grit 80), degreaseSteel/aluminium: sandblast or sand (grit 40/80), degreaseWood: sand (grit 80), cleanExisting primer: sand (grit 80), cleanFollow-up coat: LEFANT antifoulingsCoverage: approx. 8 m²/l at 50 µm, 2 m²/l at 200 µm, 1.33 m²/l at 300 µmThinner: LEFANT Multi Thinner 3087 (only for first coat on metal or spray application)Application method: Short mohair roller, spray (professional use)Mixing ratio: 4:1 (Base:Hardener by volume)Pot life: 8 hrs at 20 °CDrying times at 18 °C: Recoatable after 12 hrs, antifouling after 3–5 days (depending on temperature/system), fully durable after 7 daysFurther information on processing can be found in the technical data sheet under “Downloads”.

HEMPEL SILIC ONE Propeller-Kit
€59.90 *
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
