Product information
Compass highly effective C18 hard thin film antifouling for waters with light to medium fouling. Extremely smooth and low-friction finish. No sanding necessary before recoating. Dries within a very short time. Not suitable for aluminium. Product is with copper dioxide in the cap.
Characteristics
- Reliable fouling protection
- Low layer build-up
- Can be painted over directly
- Suitable for motor and sailing boats
- Area of application: all northern European waters - inland and coastal areas
Coverage: approx. 11 square metres/litre
Content: 750 ml / 2 litres
Application
The substrate must be clean, dry and, above all, free of grease. Old coatings must be intact and well adhered. Always check the substrate for compatibility with old antifoulings. Compass C18 is compatible with other commercially available thin-film antifoulings. It can usually be recoated directly and without preparatory work when applying a new coat.
The application temperature should be between +10°C and +30°C in dry weather.
It is applied with a fur roller. Add the powder to the can under the bonnet and mix thoroughly with the antifouling. After mixing, use up the contents within 7 days. We recommend 2 coats for a new build and approx. 1 coat per season as a renewal coat. An additional coat should be applied to particularly stressed areas such as the waterline.
Recoating interval: approx. 20 minutes (20°C)
Waiting time before allowing to soak: min. 30 minutes, max. unlimited
If necessary, sand the old coating and carefully remove the sanding dust.
Prime with the two-component EPOXY PRIMER when applying a new coating.

Gut zu verarbeiten, wirkt sehr gut gegen Seepocken
Ein würdiger Nachfolger für VC17m, zweifellos.
Das Einzige, was ich mir wünschen würde wäre eine zweite Farbe, denn bei schlechten Lichtverhältnissen in der Halle kann man schwer sehen, wo man schon gestrichen hat. Mit alternierenden Anstrichen wäre das Geschichte.
