Antifouling Paint Removal & Surface Preparation for Recoating

Antifouling Paint Removal & Surface Preparation

Task

Descaling the entire surface of the hull to completely remove existing layers of antifouling paint.

Objective

Prepare the substrate for the application of a next-generation antifouling system, ensuring maximum coating adhesion, longevity, and resistance to marine growth.

Process

  • Full mechanical removal of previous antifouling layers
  • Precision surface cleaning and smoothing
  • Thorough dust extraction and final inspection

Notes

This procedure was performed indoors for controlled cleanliness and precision. Hull preparation is a vital step to guarantee the performance and lifespan of the new antifouling coating.
