Which antifouling is best for which underwater area?

No antifouling coating can be universally applied to any underwater area. In addition to hull antifouling, there is also antifouling specifically for metallic propellers and Z-drives. This area requires a special antifouling coating, which is usually supplied in spray bottles. Similarly, not every antifouling is suitable for aluminium or steel. The fairway and the type of sports boat (sailboat, motorboat or trailer boat) also play a role when it comes to choosing the right antifouling.<a href="https://www.svb24.com/en/category/yachticon/antifouling#whichantifoulingisbestforwhichunderwaterarea">Read more</a>

Which antifouling is the right one for my boat?

Choosing the right antifouling depends on the conditions in the area, so no antifouling paint is universally suitable for each propeller / drive. You should find out which underwater paint was used by the previous owner of a used boat. In addition, legal regulations must be considered. The application and use of some types of antifouling is prohibited in some countries because antifouling products contain biocides.<a href="https://www.svb24.com/en/category/yachticon/antifouling#whichantifoulingistherightoneformyboat">Read more</a>

Self-polishing antifouling, hard antifouling or thin-film antifouling?

The antifouling that should be chosen depends on what was applied previously. Self-polishing antifouling is mostly used on slower boats and sailing boats, hard antifouling is intended for faster motor yachts. Thin film antifouling does not work by releasing active ingredients into the water, but by creating a very smooth surface that is difficult for organisms to attach to.<a href="https://www.svb24.com/en/category/yachticon/antifouling#selfpolishingantifoulinghardantifoulingorthinfilmantifouling">Read more</a>
