Pettit Copper Bronze Anti Fouling Bottom Paint 1193306, 1 Gallon, Bronze
Pettit Copper Bronze Anti Fouling is a hard, modified epoxy bottom paint formulated for season-long protection against marine growth. It delivers aggressive antifouling performance, resisting algae, barnacles, grass, and zebra mussels throughout the boating season. The hard epoxy finish holds up to repeated abuse, making it a strong choice for boats that see heavy use or frequent trailering, since the durable film withstands the friction of loading and launching without excessive wear.
This paint is suitable for use on fiberglass, wood, and steel hulls, and it is compatible with most previously applied antifouling paint, which simplifies recoating a hull that was bottom-painted in a prior season. It is sold in a 1 gallon container in a bronze color, giving boat owners a traditional bottom-paint appearance along with reliable fouling protection. For thinning, Pettit recommends 97 Epoxy Thinner. If the recommended recoat interval is exceeded, the surface should be sanded thoroughly with 80 grit sandpaper before recoating or applying additional bottom paint.
