TE CHNICAL DATA SHEET Innovative water-based hard matrix anti-fouling with controlled biocide release. This anti-fouling protects the underwater hull from the settling of marine fouling, offers excellent protection. Easy to apply, it guarantees an optimal performance with a smooth and flowing surface finish. Quick drying, safer for user and not harmful to the environment. Suitable for steel, composite and wooden hulls. Suitable for aluminium hulls that have been suitably primed with min. 300 microns of epoxy primer protection. Indicated for both new buildings and maintenance of underwater hull and boot top on vessels operating at a wide range of speed and activity. The product is designed for service periods up to 12 months depending on the applied dry film thickness (as per designated Technical Specification) with limited stationary periods as a part of a complete coating system. The product is suitable for professional and DIY users. It complies with the IMO (AFS/CONF/26). Designed to meet the stringent regulations regarding "VOC emissions". * The colour of the antifouling paint after diving may be slightly different. Small shade differences may occur between different production batches: in case, mix them before the application. Correctly primed and tie coat on steel, aluminium, composite and wood or existing and compatible anti-fouling. Cleaning: remove salts, loose matter, detergents, contaminants, leached layer and marine growth by high pressure freshwater cleaning. The surface must be clean, dry and free of contaminants before application of recommended products. According to Technical Specification. Existing anti-fouling in good condition: check antifouling compatibility with your Boero representative. If compatible, directly apply it following specified overcoating times. If the existing antifouling is not compatible or unknown, apply a tie coat before antifouling application. Existing anti-fouling in bad condition: remove the degraded antifouling by wet sanding. Remove the dust. For further information please contact your local Boero office or representative.

Always check the existing paint film is dry before applying any further product coats. After the application of the last coat, the maximum launching period of the antifouling is one month; with top quality copper oxide-based products and with the agreement with Boero technical staff, the launching time may be extended up to 9 months, providing that the hull is protected from moisture, rain or atmospheric agents with plastic or similar material. If extended period...
