Bahco 665 Carbide Edged H/Duty Paint Scraper

Product Information

EXTENDER PIGMENTS, which include talc, China clay, gypsum (plaster of paris) and barium sulphate are used to adjust the binder-to-pigment ratio, which in turn affects the paint film properties, such as permeability of water and blistering. Careful selection of the extender pigments is particularly important as their particle size and shape greatly affects their performance.

After six hours, the RemovAll had bitten through the top layer of paint Removing antifouling – Method 1. Dry scraping If you have enough paint, apply an extra coat along the waterline and leading edges of keels and rudders – all areas that are high wear. The gap between the horizontal red dotted line and the pale cream section (leached area) is where the paint has eroded when the boat moves. The leached area is the part of the antifouling film which has lost all its biocide through leaching, but because the boat has not been used enough, the dead paint has not been eroded away. Antifouling that reduces the need for regular stripping, sanding and repainting has broad appeal. But is ultrasonic antifouling the answer?

Would I scrape off antifouling again? No. Absolutely not! But there’s truth in the expression, “you have to do a job first to understand why it’s worth paying someone”. Thanks to our Project Boat Supporters If the bottom isn’t too bad, you can probably leave taking it all off for another year and just do some minimal preparation this year, preparing the surface and keying it, to take the new paint.

Switch to utility knife mode to cut carpet, cardboard, plastic, vinyl, rope and more with ease and precision.The chemical strippers were messy and expensive, but did the job well. The ability to paint on and leave overnight makes the job of scraping the hull next day far easier than dry scraping. We test DIY methods for scraping, stripping, peeling and blasting old antifouling off the hull. But not all boats will need to do this! PBO VERDICT: Slower acting than Interstrip. Environmentally friendly. Left the primer intact beneath the paint.
