bottom paint

Time for a haul out and I need to apply anti-fouling. My question is … how many gallons per coat? I’m guessing 3 gallons for 2 coats and a 3rd at the waterline

Thanks!

I did it with just under one gallon per coat of Interlux

Ben, start saving for a haul out down here in the islands. Nothing that works well in the states does down here. Everything grows rapidly here. My paint was shot a year ago. So 1 year on Trinidad SR here.

Gary:

I use about 2.2 gallons of bottom paint to apply to coats of Sea Hawk CuKote - short nap roller. I hope you do not plan to use a tributyl tin based bottom paint. It works very well in tropical waters but is very deleterious to animal and marine life, including us.
