Description

Pettit Alumaspray Plus Antifouling Paint 

Alumaspray Plus is an aerosol antifouling paint specifically designed for use on aluminum outdrives and outboard motors without the need for a barrier coat. Alumaspray Plus contains no TBT or copper compounds, and will not cause galvanic corrosion. Its self cleaning, copolymer finish washes away at a controlled rate when in contact with water. This process constantly exposes fresh biocides and eliminates paint build up. Alumaspray Plus’ offers superior resistance to all types of fouling in both fresh and salt water. It may be hauled & re-launched without recoating.
