Hempel Tiger Xtra Antifouling:
Hempel Tiger Xtra Antifoul is a high strength antifouling paint that gives you extra protection at higher speeds. One coat can last the whole season, add another, and you’ll be protected for a year in all conditions.
The Hempel antifoul can cover 13.5 metres square per litre and must be applied in temperatures of at least 5C. Once applied, it will be ready for the water after just 24 hours (if applied at 20C). If you’re planning ahead, need not worry, there is a maximum time of three months for the boat to be in the water. The antifoul will change to its correct colour after being in the water for one week.
