Information

PrimaShield Antifouling Sealer stands out as a swift-drying, versatile primer tailored for below-waterline application, serving to establish superb water resistance and acting as a binding layer for various substrates prior to antifouling application.

This sealer is employed on the following surfaces:

• Mild steel and Corten steel hulls and keels
• Timber hulls (previously sealed with Altex Epoxy TimberSealer)
• Aged exposed epoxy primers/undercoats
• Exposed fiberglass, gelcoat, or GRP
