Sea Hawk Tropikote Blue Hard Modified Epoxy Antifouling Bottom Paint, Gallon (2142/GL)
Sea Hawk Tropikote Blue is a hard modified epoxy, conventional antifouling bottom paint formulated with over 75% cuprous oxide to aggressively combat all types of marine fouling year-round. Built as a multi-season coating, Tropikote reduces hull maintenance by delivering trouble-free antifouling performance across repeated seasons rather than requiring a full strip-and-recoat cycle every year. Its hard epoxy formulation provides superior adhesion to fiberglass, wood, and steel hulls, making it suitable for use on a wide range of vessel construction types.
Tropikote is also compatible with prior coatings: it may be applied directly over other modified epoxy antifoulants, allowing owners to overcoat an existing bottom job without the risk of the new coat lifting from the old one. This makes it a practical choice for routine haul-out maintenance where a full paint removal is not desired or necessary.
