dilution

Why dilute antifouling?

Thinners increase the viscosity of the applied liquids. Boats are painted in multiple coats so that trapped air can escape beneath the coat. To achieve this, the first coat must fill in any small imperfections on the boat's surface that remain after the preparatory work. Adding a thinner to the first coat makes the paint or varnish more fluid. Especially for those who only start protecting and maintaining their boat at the end of the season and are facing the first cold snaps, sometimes it's necessary to give it a helping hand to ensure that diluted boat varnishes and/or antifoulings are applied correctly and spread evenly across the entire surface.
