Features:- 60% Copper
- Performance Upgrade from Unepoxy
Unepoxy Plus is a modified epoxy that dries to a hard finish able to withstand season-long use and abuse. It has excellent adhesion to fiberglass, wood and properly primed steel hulls and is compatible over most previously applied bottom paints. Compared to other traditional modified epoxy antifoulants, Unepoxy Plus has more copper for the dollar making it the right choice for the value conscious boat owner.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Unepoxy Plus is an excellent, general purpose antifouling for boaters desiring
aggressive bottom protection in an easy to apply, cosmetically attractive finish.
Unepoxy Plus antifouling is resistant to algae, barnacles, grass, zebra mussels,
etc. Unepoxy Plus antifouling is equally effective in both fresh and saltwater
and is also ideal for trailered boats.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Unepoxy is heavily loaded with cuprous oxide. As a result of this there is a
tendency for settling to occur, especially if the paint has been on the shelf for
several months. It is necessary to thoroughly mix the paint before using. If
possible shake the can of paint on a mechanical paint shaker. Before using
check the sides and bottom of the can to make sure all the pigment has been
mixed in. If mixing is going to be done with a wooden paddle or an electric drill
mixer, pour off half of the liquid from the top of the can into another can and
then properly mix in any settled pigment; then remix the two parts together
thoroughly.
Adhere to all application instructions, precautions, conditions and limitations to
obtain optimum performance. Refer to individual labels and tech sheets for
detailed instructions when using associated products, etc. Do not thin
Unepoxy more than 10% (12 ounces per gallon) or inadequate paint film
thickness will occur and premature erosion of the finish will be likely.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Coating performance, in general, is proportional to the degree of surface
preparation. Follow recommendations carefully, avoiding shortcuts. Inadequate
preparation of surfaces will virtually assure inadequate coating performance.
MAINTENANCE
No antifouling paint can be effective under all conditions of exposure. Man
made pollution and natural occurrences can adversely affect antifouling paint
performance. Extreme hot and cold water temperatures, silt, dirt, oil, brackish
water and even electrolysis can ruin an antifouling paint. Therefore, we
strongly suggest that the bottom of the boat be checked several times a
month to make sure it is clean and that no growth is occurring. Lightly scrub
the bottom with a soft brush to remove anything from the antifouling paint
surface. Scrubbing is particularly important with boats that are idle for extended
periods of time. The coating is most effective when the boat is used
periodically.
