Interlux VC Offshore Antifouling Bottom Paint - Red, Gallon

VC Offshore is a high-performance hard antifouling engineered to deliver a smooth, low-friction hull surface that can be burnished to an ultra-low profile for maximum speed and durability. Formulated with a fluoropolymer (Teflon) microadditive, it creates a very hard, fast finish ideal for racing sailboats and performance powerboats in both fresh and salt water.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of antifouling is VC Offshore? It is a hard antifouling paint that works by contact leaching. The film dries to a porous, biocide-packed surface that leaches on contact with water to prevent fouling growth, leaving a hard, scrubbable, abrasion-resistant finish.

What color is this paint? This is the Red color of VC Offshore.

How much area does one gallon cover? One gallon covers approximately 250 square feet.

Can VC Offshore be used in both fresh and salt water? Yes. It is designed to provide predictable antifouling performance in both fresh water and salt water.

What makes VC Offshore good for racing? It is formulated with a fluoropolymer (Teflon) microadditive to create a hard, smooth, low-friction surface that can be burnished to a very low profile, reducing drag for maximum speed and performance.

What surfaces can I apply it to? It is recommended for fiberglass, wood and primed underwater metals.

Can this hard antifouling be hauled and relaunched without repainting? No. Hard antifoulings do not retain their antifouling ability out of the water and cannot be hauled and relaunched without repainting once the boat has been out.

Can the finish be burnished? Yes. The hard, smooth film can be burnished to a very low profile to produce a fast, low-friction antifouling surface.

What is the finish like? It produces a very hard, smooth, high-gloss finish that is abrasion resistant and scrubbable.

What size does this come in? This is a 1 gallon container.

Is this paint waterproof? Yes. The cured film is waterproof and built for continuous immersion below the waterline.
