Pettit 92 Bio-Blue Pre-Paint Surface Cleaner, 1 Gallon (Part 11509206)
Pettit 92 Bio-Blue Pre-Paint Surface Cleaner, 1 Gallon (Part 11509206)
Pettit 92 Bio-Blue is a pre-paint surface cleaner used to prepare fiberglass hulls before priming and painting, including as part of a full osmotic blister repair. After all antifouling paint or other coatings have been completely removed and the hull sanded with 80-grit production paper, Pettit 92 Bio-Blue is applied to the bare surface and scrubbed in with a 3M Doodlebug pad and a maroon or brown Scotch-Brite abrasive pad. Every area of the hull must be thoroughly scrubbed with the Doodlebug and pad to ensure the cleaner reaches and lifts residue across the full surface.
This cleaning step is a standard part of hull surface preparation: after the Bio-Blue scrub, the surface is sanded again and rewashed with Pettit 120 Brushing Thinner to remove sanding residue before priming. Using Pettit 92 Bio-Blue at this stage helps ensure the surface is properly cleaned before subsequent sanding, moisture-content checks, and blister repair work proceed. It is supplied in a 1 gallon container under Pettit part number 11509206.
