BottomShield Antifouling Paint, Blue, Quart by West Marine | For Boats | Boat Maintenance at West Marine. Bottomshield with Easy Application and Cleanup Technology provides season-long protection for powerboats and sailboats Designed for easy application and cleanup, and to provide a full season of antifouling protection, BottomShield Antifouling Paint uses the latest technology available to create a hybrid paint film strong enough to handle the tough marine environment without building up over time. It offers the durability of a hard paint, but also self-polishes over time like a seasonal ablative. Soap and water cleanup along with no strong solvent smell yields a user-friendly application. BottomShield Easy Application and Cleanup Technology will not require sanding between coats saving time and money. With lower VOC release, BottomShield is a good choice for marinas under restrictions.
