BARE FIBERGLASS: Scrub the surface thoroughly with soap and water using a stiff brush. Apply Fiberglass Surface Prep YMA601V with a 3/8"" nap roller on surface to be de-waxed, work in 10x10 foot areas. Ensure YMA601V is removed before drying. Scrub Fiberglass Surface Prep YMA601V using a 3M Doodlebug™ and a brown Scotch-Brite® pad. Once all areas have been thoroughly scrubbed, use wet rags or spray down with high pressure rinse to remove all traces of Fiberglass Surface Prep YMA601V. Change rags frequently. Wipe down with clean cloths. Repeat the cleaning process until water no longer beads. Surface must be clean and dry prior to application of Fiberglass Bottomkote® Aqua.

BARE FIBERGLASS - NO SAND: Prepare surface as described above. Apply the Fiberglass Bottomkote®  Aqua within 4 hours of cleaning. If this time is exceeded, rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. If exceeding 2 months between de-waxing and painting, repeat cleaning prior to application of Fiberglass Bottomkote® Aqua.

Apply 2 coats for full protection. BARE WOOD: Apply 3 coats of Fiberglass Bottomkote® Aqua. Fiberglass Bottomkote® Aqua can be applied to most popular antifouling paints as long as the old coating has been aged, is tightly adhered and is in sound condition. Do not apply Fiberglass Bottomkote® Aqua over soft or tin-based copolymer antifoulings. Do not use on aluminum.
