A7T.SpeedTM ANTIFOULING Hard matrix antifouling - For propellers and Z-drives iU? •• The printing process may render some of the colour samples imperfectly. We recommend testing the paint before committing to a colour. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Nautix A7T.Speed™ is hard matrix antifouling especially developed for propellers and Z drives previously protected. It maintains the propeller in a clean condition ensuring correct balance thus reducing vibration and wear of through-hull seals. Spray allows easy application on inaccessible areas and smooth finish. PRODUCT INFORMATION Finish Matt Coverage 12.5m2/L per layer (roller/brush) Flash point Unit size Typical shelf life 3 years Colours white, grey Drying / Overcoating Information! d=days h=hours min=minutes *Minimum overcoating time recommended for 1 layer (10C^m wet thickness) - Please refer to Application **Maximum immersion time : several weeks if boat is stored in good conditions SURFACE PREPARATION New surface without any paint • The surface should be degreased with Nautix SD and a clean cloth. • Aluminium : Remove the oxidation from surface with adapted cleaner. • Sand thoroughly all metal surfaces with dry P80 grade paper to improve mechanical adhesion, then clean with Nautix SD. Do not use water to rinse. • Apply several coats of primer (Please refer to important information). Surface previously stripped (every 3 years) • Remove all existing antifouling or other coating using P80 paper grade to improve mechanical adhesion, then clean with Nautix SD. Do not use water to rinse. • Apply several coats of primer (Please refer to important information). Important information Cleaner for aluminium : Nautix SCOURING ACID Choose the right Nautix primer after mechanical preparation : - Aluminium (2 systems) : ACRALU(1 coat) + PA(3 coats) OR METAPOX(1 coat) + epoxy primer(3 coats) - Other surfaces : P7 or PA (1 to 2 coats) Thinner for primer : Nautix DP Surface already coated - accumulation of antifouling layers • Check the substrate : Before overcoating, check the current paint not to be damaged. You can grit with brush in different areas to test adhesion of current antifouling. • Sand thoroughly with dry P120 grade paper to improve mechanical adhesion, and then clean with Nautix SD. Do not use water to rinse. SAFETY INFORMATION Compatibility Important : For aluminium propeller, Nautix A7T.SpeedTM must be applied over protected and regularly checked substrate. Do not apply directly over aluminium. If there is any doubt on compatibility between the new antifouling paint and the existing one, apply a coat of Nautix P1. • Only use as an antifouling product to prevent the growth of micro and macro organisms like week, algae or barnacles from settling on underwater surfaces in salt and fresh water. For amateur (up to 2.5Litres) and professional (up to 20 litres). Antifouling contains biocides. Use antifouling products with care. • Work in well-ventilated area, wear suitable protective clothing, gloves, glasses and eye/face protection. Unprotected person must be kept away from treatment area. Dispose of protective gloves and equipment after use.

A7T.SpeedTM ANTIFOULING Hard matrix antifouling – For propellers and Z-drives Application methods : Spray, Airless, Airmix spray, brush, roller. Apply between 10 and 30°C (ideally inside with hygrometry rate no greater than 85%). Do not apply when there is a chance of condensation forming on the substrate (Dew-Point) : substrate, ambient air and product temperatures must be close. Avoid applying in adverse weather conditions : strong wind, strong sunlight, high/low temperatures, high humidity or rain. Important : Antifouling efficiency depends directly on applied film thickness. Apply the...
