Pettit 92 Bio-Blue Pre-Paint Surface Cleaner, Quart, Gelcoat Prep for Hull Blister Repair
Pettit 92 Bio-Blue Pre-Paint Surface Cleaner, Quart, Gelcoat Prep for Hull Blister Repair
Pettit 92 Bio-Blue is a pre-paint surface cleaner used to thoroughly clean and prepare a hull's gelcoat or laminate surface before painting or coating. It is a designated step in Pettit's hull blister repair process: after antifouling paint and any other coatings have been fully removed with 80-grit production paper, Pettit 92 Bio-Blue is applied and scrubbed into the surface using a 3M Doodlebug pad paired with a maroon or brown Scotch-Brite abrasive pad. Every area of the work surface should be scrubbed thoroughly with the Doodlebug and pad to ensure complete contact and cleaning before moving on to the next stage of surface preparation, which includes further 80-grit sanding.
This cleaning step is intended to prepare the gelcoat or laminate for the subsequent stages of a proper blister repair: puncturing blisters, grinding out bad gelcoat or laminate, and rinsing with fresh water to remove water-soluble contaminants before checking hull moisture with a moisture meter. Pettit 92 Bio-Blue comes in a quart container and is sold under Pettit part number 11509208.
