China Suppliers Factory AFZH-306 Eco-Friendly Self-Polishing Antifouling Paint for Boats - Various Colors Available
Product Characteristics
- ✓ Does not contain internationally banned toxic substances such as organotin (TBT).
- ✓ Has long-term effectiveness, with a validity period of more than 12 months.
- ✓ Adapting to ships of different speeds, the surface of the paint film is uniformly hydrolyzed by friction with water flow, continuously releasing anti-fouling active substances, while forming a smooth surface to reduce navigation resistance.
- ✓ Low temperature construction is possible.
Recommended Use
Primarily designed for anti-fouling on the bottom of small fishing boats or cruise ships during closed fishing seasons.

Application
🔧 Construction Method
Airless spray
Nozzle pressure: 14 MPa – 21 MPa
Nozzle hole diameter: 0.6 – 0.8 mm
🛡️ Surface Treatment & Construction Conditions
Dust, sand, loose material and pollutants and marine life removal.
Construction should always be carried out on the recommended primer. The primer surface should be dry and free of any contaminants.
To avoid condensation, apply on a clean, dry surface at a temperature at least 3°C [5°F] above the dew point.
The relative humidity during construction and drying film formation must be less than 85%.

No. This product is formulated without organotin (TBT) or any other internationally banned toxic substances, making it a safe and compliant choice for marine anti-fouling applications.
Q
How long does the anti-fouling protection last?
The product offers long-term effectiveness with a validity period of more than 12 months, providing reliable protection for the hull throughout extended periods of use or during closed fishing seasons.
Q
What types of vessels is this anti-fouling paint suitable for?
This paint is primarily designed for small fishing boats and cruise ships. It is adaptable to vessels of different speeds, as the paint film hydrolysis rate adjusts according to the friction with water flow.
Q
Can this product be applied in low-temperature conditions?
Yes, low-temperature construction is possible. However, ensure the surface temperature is at least 3°C [5°F] above the dew point and relative humidity is below 85% during application and drying.
Q
What is the recommended application method and equipment?
The recommended application method is airless spray. Use a nozzle pressure of 14–21 MPa and a nozzle hole diameter of 0.6–0.8 mm for optimal results.
Q
What surface preparation is required before applying this paint?
Prior to application, remove all dust, sand, loose materials, pollutants, and marine life from the surface. The paint should be applied over a recommended primer that is dry and completely free of contaminants.
