The Semi-Erodable Antifouling Metal Shield is a high-performance antifouling paint designed to protect boat hulls from marine fouling. Manufactured in France by JET BLACK, this product is suitable for all hull types, including aluminum, wood, polyester, and metal.
Key Features:
- Semi-Erodable Matrix: The antifouling dissolves in water, allowing the fouled layer to wear away through friction, exposing a fresh layer beneath.

- Compatibility: Compatible with most existing antifoulings, facilitating easy application over previously coated surfaces.
- Application Versatility: Suitable for all types of boats, whether motor or sail, operating at speeds up to 30 knots.
- Easy Application: Provides a coverage of 8-10 m² per liter, making it efficient for various boat sizes.

Materials:
The product is formulated with a semi-erodible matrix and incorporates Teflon to enhance glide, improve antifouling efficiency, and maintain optimal speed and fuel consumption performance.
Compatibility Information:
The Semi-Erodable Antifouling Metal Shield is suitable for all types of boats, including motor and sailing vessels, with speeds up to 30 knots. It is compatible with various substrates, including wood, steel, gelcoat, cast iron, lead, and aluminum, provided they are properly prepared. The product can be applied using a brush, roller, airless sprayer, or pneumatic gun. Depending on the material, thinning with 0% - 15% of special antifouling thinner may be necessary. The recommended application temperature range is between 10°C and 30°C. For optimal results, apply two coats of antifouling, with a third coat in sensitive areas such as the waterline and rudder. Allow a minimum of 6 hours of drying time before launching, with superior results achieved after 24 hours of drying.
