The Erodable Antifouling Matrix with Teflon - Fast Shield is a high-performance antifouling paint designed to protect your boat's hull from marine fouling. Manufactured in France by JET BLACK, this product combines advanced technology with user-friendly application to ensure optimal performance.
- Erodable Matrix Technology: The antifouling layer gradually erodes in water, allowing the fouled film to dissolve through friction and making way for a fresh layer.
- Teflon Integration: Incorporates Teflon to reduce friction, enhancing the boat's glide and speed.
- Double Biocide and High Copper Content: Offers effective protection against algae, barnacles, crustaceans, and other marine organisms that can attach to the hull and cause damage.
- Compatibility: Suitable for all types of boats, whether motorized or sailing, and for all types of substrates, including wood, steel, and polyester. Not compatible with aluminum hulls.
- Easy Application: Provides a coverage of 8-10 m² per liter, facilitating straightforward application.
- Color Options: Available in black, sky blue, navy blue, and grey.
