Much has changed in the world of antifouling and topside finish paints in the last couple of years. VC17 has disappeared due to environmental reasons. We will discuss the options available in the Interlux line of bottom paints. As well the Brightside finish paint for topsides as been replaced with the new Toplac finish paint.
During the presentation we will discuss both of these products along with Interprotect and other related products for barrier coats to protect your boat under the waterline from osmosis damage.
Attendees will have the opportunity to win their Interlux purchases on this day. The presenter of this seminar is Rigging Shoppe staff member Mike Macdonald.
