Yes, it is the replacement for Micron extra EU. (Probably the same with a new name I guess)

I couldn't find information how many sq meters can be polished with 0,5l of International Polish & Wax in average damaged surface. I'm going to use it for deck polishing of 40 ft yacht. Is it 1l enough?

Comment faite vous l'étanchéité du filetage entre passe coque et vanne ? Teflon ? Pâte ? Autre ?
Et entre passe coque et coque mettez vous du mastic type sika ou autre ?
Merci pour vos retour d'expérience.

Entre la coque et le passe coque j’ai mis un mastic type sika et pour l’étanchéité du filetage j’ai mis soit du Téflon quand c’est facilement accessible et qu’on puisse tourner la vanne soit un gel d’étanchéité de filetage . Loctite en fabrique . Quand on utilise le gel il faut attendre 24h pour la mise à l’eau c’est plus sur surtout si le passe coque est profond. Ma préférence va au Téflon on peut facilement enlever la poignée de la vanne si besoin pour la tourner plus facilement . Il peut être intéressant de faire un test au préalable pour savoir combien de tour de Téflon il faut mettre .

Trudesign, as first option, for fixation thru hull fittings recommend epoxy resin. I replaced all old thru hull fittings with Trudesign fittings on may boat last year and I fixed them with epoxy resin on the hull (I used West System Epoxy - https://www.westsystem.com/) .
If you do this in this way, thru hull fitting becomes part of the hull. It is imposible to detach it on easy way - bulletproff(!). For fixation other parts inside the boat (Ball Valves and other fittings) I used Sika 295i which is also recomended by Thrudesign.
