Smoother surface Over time, hull roughness generally increases due to mechanical damage, resulting in higher operating costs. This increase can be offset by the degree of polishing and is dependent on the antifouling type used. For Interswift® technology, the coating surface is found to be 12% smoother than that of a typical Controlled Depletion Polymer (CDP) antifouling.
