SeaPro C001 is an entirely new type of anti foul paint.
It is a highly modified, hard vinyl, hydrolysis reactive paint.
It is extremely flexible and long-lived.
This is a significant advance in environmentally safe
anti foul technology. Unlike other vinyl-based paints which are
hard, inflexible and brittle, SeaPro C001's structure is more like
leather: tough, hard, and flexible with a silky smooth surface.
A SeaPro C001 painted hull can be returned to the water
the same day it is painted!
Drying time to re-launch is 8 hours at 70 degrees F.
VOC only 260 grams/liter
The financial benefits of SeaPro C001 are obvious:
-
It lasts longer – 3 to 5 years
-
It requires lesser painting preparation.
-
It can be applied under wet condition.
-
It reduces the idle time – relaunching time can be
as short as 8 hours.
-
It increases the speed of the ship – due to the
smooth surface of the paint thus reducing the friction between water
and the hull.
-
It reduces he fuel consumption of the ship – less
marine lives growth on the hull and less friction between the hull
and water.
These translate into tremendous savings in the operation
of the ship.
