Is it possible to antifool the full boat .do you recommend this if i have lots of antifool to my specific needs.thanks for any advice.

[@ImNotADeeJay]

I don't even have a boat, so I actually saved money not antifouling it

[@troytheboy86]

What sand paper grade did you use?

[@merlinsdog4530]

Could you let me know if you have any boats I could live on for sale at the moment for about a grand? Thanks

[@stevenpaddybwoy]

You’d be better off looking at tents

[@JT-er5yx]

Agreed

[@markjennings2315]

Or just buy vivid and you can paint both the outdrive abd the hull with the same antifoul.

As a 30 year paint manufacturer and specifier
Didn’t he get that the wrong way around
You want to sand then clean- degrease?

[@peterjordan-turner8789]

Degrease first makes the sanding easier and more effective. Needs a final prepaint wipe before applying primer though.

[@similu]

What are you using to thin down the primer please

[@bitTorrenter]

Naphtha perhaps? Could be xylene or toluene though. There are many solvents.

[@markjennings2315]

@@bitTorrenter Toluene is nasty stuff!

[@bitTorrenter]

Anti-fouling? Thought it wasn't anything special. Painting, ah yes.

[@Brodrosttakpapp]

are you saying my boat is foul bro??

[@ImNotADeeJay]

I suspect of foul play
