As an ablative coating, it wears away gradually with water movement, continuously exposing fresh antifouling biocide and reducing the paint buildup that can occur with hard bottom paints over repeated seasons. This makes it a common choice for boat owners who hunt in the water regularly or want a lower-maintenance recoating cycle compared to non-ablative formulas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is for the Black color option. The paint is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under EPA# 44891-20, confirming it meets federal antifouling coating registration requirements. It is sold under Sea Hawk's Islands 44 TF product line, part number 1005TF\/GL.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sea Hawk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1005TF\/GL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Line:\u003c\/strong\u003e Islands 44 TF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ablative Bottom Paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEPA Registration Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44891-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 811577015300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat type of bottom paint is the Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is an ablative antifouling bottom paint, part number 1005TF\/GL, meaning the coating wears away gradually with water movement to continuously expose fresh antifouling protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is this Sea Hawk bottom paint?\u003c\/strong\u003e This listing, part number 1005TF\/GL, is the Black color option of the Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF EPA registered?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, it carries EPA registration number 44891-20, which is required for antifouling paints sold in the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does a container of Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF Black, part number 1005TF\/GL, weighs 15.3 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between ablative and hard bottom paint?\u003c\/strong\u003e Ablative paints like the Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF wear away with water flow, releasing fresh antifouling biocide over time, while hard bottom paints stay intact and require sanding between recoats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat part number does this Sea Hawk bottom paint use?\u003c\/strong\u003e The manufacturer part number is 1005TF\/GL, corresponding to the Black color of the Islands 44 TF line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this paint intended for use below the waterline?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF is categorized as an ablative bottom paint for hull antifouling protection below the waterline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF come in other colors?\u003c\/strong\u003e This specific SKU, part number 1005TF\/GL, is the Black variant; other colors in the Islands 44 TF line would carry different part numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat UPC is associated with this Sea Hawk bottom paint?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for the Sea Hawk Islands 44 TF Black, part number 1005TF\/GL, is 811577015300.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Sea Hawk a recognized brand for antifouling paint?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, Sea Hawk manufactures the Islands 44 TF ablative bottom paint sold under part number 1005TF\/GL, a category the brand markets specifically as ablative antifouling coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sea Hawk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031300186331,"sku":"S-H-1005TFGL","price":437.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/i_2f14ebfc-9dd9-43af-83dc-397ecfe3b1d8.jpg?v=1785348908","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sea-hawk-islands-44-tf-black-gl-ablative-bottom-paint-epa-44891-20","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
