Bottom Paint
Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2022 2:56 pm
I have searched all the posts on this topic but don't see much. I was hoping to start a discussion on this topic as to what you have found to work well for you both in bottom paint materials and application methods.
Our boat (prior to us owning) has fallen victim to poor application processes and yard rip offs where prep is not done properly and 2 coats are applied year after year.
Now about 4K worth of product (years worth) is starting to come off in large patches right down the to hull barrier coat. I do realize this is not uncommon and every 10 years or so most boats need to take it all off right down to nothing and start again.
Appreciate hearing what is working for you. I have heard many great things about Jotun.
Interlux Micron C&C is good of course but really only as good as prep as its adhesive qualities poor if this is not done well.
Thanks in advance.
