Selfpolishing antifouling

Self-polishing long-term antifouling from commercial shipping, suitable for use in offshore waters with high fouling pressure.  PPG SIGMA Ecofleet 290 S contains bioactive organic biocides and copper compounds, which are effectively released in a controlled manner through the continuous polishing rate. It therefore offers effective protection against fouling for 36 - 60 months (depending on driving style and routes). Complies with the IMO Antifouling Systems Convention.Can be applied to most hard and self-polishing antifoulings (not to Teflon-containing antifoulings).Technical DataArea of use: offshore, suitable for waters with heavy fouling pressureBoat type: For deep-sea vessels and commercial applicationsSubstrate: Wood, GRP, Steel, not AluminiumPrimer: PPG SIGMA Vikote 18 Coverage: 7.3 m²/l at 75 µmThinner: PPG Thinner 21-06Application method: brush, roller, airless spray (professional)Drying times: recoatable after 10 hrs at 10 °CRefloating time (time between painting and launching): 12 hrs (minimum) at 10 °CFurther information on application can be found in the technical data sheet under "Downloads".

NAUTICA HARD ECO is a biocide-free underwater hull coating from the Swedish company LEFANT, which is suitable for sailing and motor boats of all speed ranges. It forms a hard, polishing surface that protects the boat from fouling and is easy to clean.NAUTICA HARD ECO is suitable for use on aluminium hulls and is compatible with most self-polishing and hard antifouling. Two coats are sufficient for seasonal protection, additional coats may be required in areas of higher friction and wear such as the rudder, stern and waterline.ATTENTION: The colour black is currently not available. Alternatively, choose a biocide-free hard antifouling (e.g. YACHTCARE PROTECTOR HARD )Note: The effectiveness of biocide-free underwater coatings depends on the area of operation and the boat's sailing characteristics.

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.
