PREPARATION OF THE SUPPORT AND APPLICATION CYCLE

New iron fairings. Apply a coat of EPOFOND AM-9 on sandblasted iron at grade 2.5-3 and let it dry for 12-24 hours. (If it is not possible to sandblast it, it is advisable to mechanically restore the iron to new condition; clean the surface and apply 1 coat of EVIOX CROMOMINIO, allowing it to dry for 8-12 hours.) Then apply 3 coats of SOLVER PRIMER at intervals of 24 hours between them . Overpaint with 2-3 coats of SERENISSIMA antifouling at least 8 hours apart.
New wooden fairings.Apply a coat of EVIOX CROMOMINIO and let it dry for 8-12 hours. Apply 2 coats of SOLVER PRIMER 24 hours from each other, then 2-3 coats of SERENISSIMA antifouling at least 8 hours apart.
New hulls in fiberglass or plastic. Degrease with detergents and water and rinse. Lightly sand with fine abrasive papers and dust. Apply a coat of POLIFIBER PRIMER and after 24 hours sand with fine sandpaper. Then apply 2-3 coats of SERENISSIMA antifouling at least 8 hours apart.
Fairings already painted.On pre-existing antifoulings in excellent condition and compatible, apply 2-3 coats of SERENISSIMA after light sanding. If the old antifouling is of an unknown nature, its compatibility with SERENISSIMA can be verified through a preliminary overpainting test on a small part of the surface; if bubbles, wrinkles or creep occur, apply an intermediate coat of SOLVER PRIMER to isolate the old layer. Then apply 2-3 coats of SERENISSIMA antifouling at least 8 hours apart. (It is however advisable to completely remove the antifouling after 3-4 years of repairs.)

(*) NOTE 1: Brush application. Apply the SERENISSIMA antifouling with longitudinal movements with respect to the waterline; wait at least 8 hours before applying the second coat of SERENISSIMA. A third pass of SERENISSIMA along the entire waterline and on the rudder is recommended.

Recommendations. The maximum period of commissioning of the antifouling, after the application of the last coat, is 1 month; with top-of-the-range products based on copper oxide and subject to agreement with our. technical personnel, the same can extend up to 3 months, provided that the hull is protected from humidity, rain, or atmospheric agents, with plastic or similar material.
