Preparation

PREVIOUSLY ANTIFOULED SURFACE

• In Good Condition: All fouling and contamination must be thoroughly removed including the leached layer. Use high pressure fresh water wash (3000 psi/207 bar) and/or scraping and wet sanding with typically 80­120 grade paper. Do not dry sand. If old antifouling is incompatible or unknown, seal with suitable International Paint barrier/sealer coat.
• In Poor Condition: Use Interstrip to remove all traces of antifouling.

PRIMING: All preparation for bare substrates is covered on the appropriate primer datasheet

BARE GRP: Prime with Gelshield 200 for osmosis protection, or Primocon or Interprotect

STEEL/IRON/LEAD/WOOD: Prime with Interprotect or Primocon.

Hints

• Mixing: Thoroughly stir until product is mixed to a uniform consistency before use.
• Thinning: Thinning is not recommended. Antifouling performance can be compromised if correct dry film thickness is not applied.
• Cleaner: YTA085 International Antifouling Thinners #3.
• Airless Spray (Professional only): Pressure: 176­210 bar/2500­3050 psi. Tip size: 517 to 521.
• Ventilation and Humidity Control: Ensure adequate ventilation during use.
• Other: Antifoulings should only be wet sanded. Never dry sand or burn­off old antifoulings. True colour will develop after immersion.
