• Aged antifouling with leached layer : Removal by thorough fresh water washing at minimum nozzle pressure 200 bar.

Recommended :

• New tie coat or new antifouling : Remove any contamination that could interfere with the intercoat adhesion. Exceeding maximum recoat intervals will require cleaning/abrading and/or application of additional coats, depending on condition.
• Aged antifouling with leached layer : Removal by thorough fresh water washing at minimum nozzle pressure 340 bar.
