Seahawk Paints Sharkskin Antifouling Bottom Paint

Seahawk Paints Sharkskin is a hard, modified epoxy antifouling bottom paint. It is made to protect boat hulls below the waterline. It is Sea Hawk's traditional copper-based formula, with 45.2% copper. It works against marine fouling such as barnacles, sea grass, green weed and other fouling organisms in fresh and salt water.

Key Features:

• Hard modified epoxy base: forms a durable antifouling surface that does not intentionally wear away like an ablative paint.
• Copper-based protection: uses cuprous oxide as the active ingredient.
• Fresh and saltwater use: suited to powerboats, sailboats and yachts with compatible hull surfaces.
• Flexible recoating: can be applied over most existing antifouling coatings when the old paint is in good condition and the surface is properly prepared.
• Consistent application: the manufacturer cites consistent viscosity for good flow and rolling, and good color consistency.

Prepare the surface and follow the manufacturer's compatibility chart and application instructions. Use the recommended primer system if you are not sure the old coating is compatible. Sharkskin can be applied by brush, roller or airless spray.
