Seatec doesn't give a lot of instructions on the tin, but since GTI properties are (close to) identical to VC17, I'd suggest to their guidance:
"Conventional antifouling
paints, removals is best but if this is not possible, start sanding with 80 grade (grit) paper and progressively sand with
finer grades until the final sanding with 320 grade (grit). Remove sanding residue."
I switched to GTI 30 to get the smooth, non layer building feature. Therefore had a complete removal of old antifouling (dry ice blasting) to get a perfect start, then Plasmotec primer and finally GTI. Very smooth result and so far kept the hull clean for two seasons (on land during winter). Boat is in the Baltic Ocean.
I'll apply an new layer before next launch.
Just personal experience., use it if you like.
