VELOX PLUS Antifouling for propellers VELOX PLUS is an antifouling paint suitable for protection of propellers, stern drives, shafts, trim tabs and other' metallic parts permanently immersed. It is not degraded by galvanic currents that are responsible paint detachment. DIRECTIONS FOR USE 1. Wash and degrease carefully all metallic surfaces (bare bronze, stainless steel or aluminum with factory finish) with our SOLVENT 102 ANTISILICONE or a good and degreasing solvent. 2. Sand thoroughly all metallic surfaces with rather coarse sandpaper (Grit - no. 80), renewing it often. Do not use worn out sandpaper. Surfaces with factory finish should be lightly sanded with medium sandpaper (no. 180 - 220). 3. Brush all surfaces with a dry cloth. Do not wash the surface with water, soap, acids or solvents. Do not touch the surfaces with bare hands, that may leave traces of grease or dirt. 4. Apply one light coat of METAL PRIMER (wet film thickness 100 [J, dry film thickness 30 [J) . 5. Wait at least 3 hours at 20 c C, then apply one coat of VELOX PLUS (wet film thickness 100 [J, dry film thickness 30 [J). 6. Wait at least 3 hours at 20 c C, then apply a second coat of VELOX PLUS (wet film thickness 100 [J, dry film thickness 30 [J). 7. Wait at least 16 hours at 20 c C for launching. RECOMMENDATIONS 'Apply Primepox only on bare aluminium. On aluminium treated with factol}' finish or appropriate epoxy protection (like most part made of aluminium or light al/otys are), apply directly METAL PRIMER and VELOX PLUS (see instructions, point 3). - Shake well the cans of METAL PRIMER and VELOX PLUS before opening, then stir until the paint becomes homogeneous. - To obtain a good result, it is essential to prepare the surface carefully: at the time of applying METAL PRIMER all metallic surfaces should be very rough and perfectly clean (free from grease, dust, water, solvents or any other kind of dirt - even fingerprints or sweat). - For application by brush, do not dilute the product. For spraying dilute only with MARLIN THINNER N. 4 (do not use any other solvent). - Surfaces of bare aluminum (without factory finish) should be treated with an anticorrosive epoxy treatment (e.g. 3 coats of PRIMEPOX, see our catalogue for instructions), then sanded and then treated as if they were painted with factory finish (see above, point 3). - Do not apply METAL PRIMER or VELOX PLUS on any other antifouling. On the top of exhausted VELOX PLUS from previous season, another two coats of VELOX PLUS can be applied directly as explained above in points 5 to 7, without METAL PRIMER.

VELOX PLUSAntifouling for propellers
VELOX PLUS is an antifouling paint suitable for protection of propellers, stern drives, shafts, trim tabs and other'metallic parts permanently immersed. It is not degraded by galvanic currents that are responsible paintdetachment.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
1. Wash and degrease carefully all metallic surfaces(bare bronze, stainless steel or aluminum with factoryfinish) with our SOLVENT 102 ANTISILICONE or agood and degreasing solvent.
2. Sand thoroughly all metallic surfaces with rathercoarse sandpaper (Grit - no. 80), renewing it often.Do not use worn out sandpaper. Surfaces with factoryfinish should be lightly sanded with mediumsandpaper (no. 180 - 220).
3. Brush all surfaces with a dry cloth. Do not wash thesurface with water, soap, acids or solvents. Do nottouch the surfaces with bare hands, that may leavetraces of grease or dirt.
4. Apply one light coat of METAL PRIMER (wet filmthickness 100 [J, dry film thickness 30 [J) .
5. Wait at least 3 hours at 20 c C, then apply one coat ofVELOX PLUS (wet film thickness 100 [J, dry filmthickness 30 [J).
6. Wait at least 3 hours at 20 c C, then apply a secondcoat of VELOX PLUS (wet film thickness 100 [J, dryfilm thickness 30 [J).
7. Wait at least 16 hours at 20 c C for launching.
RECOMMENDATIONS
'Apply Primepox only on bare aluminium. On aluminium treatedwith factol}' finish or appropriate epoxy protection (like most partmade of aluminium or light al/otys are), apply directly METALPRIMER and VELOX PLUS (see instructions, point 3).
- Shake well the cans of METAL PRIMER and VELOX PLUS before opening, then stir until the paint becomeshomogeneous.- To obtain a good result, it is essential to prepare the surface carefully: at the time of applying METAL PRIMERall metallic surfaces should be very rough and perfectly clean (free from grease, dust, water, solvents or anyother kind of dirt - even fingerprints or sweat).- For application by brush, do not dilute the product.

On the top of exhausted VELOXPLUS from previous season, another two coats of VELOX PLUS can be applied directly as explained above inpoints 5 to 7, without METAL PRIMER. We suggest removing all the antifouling paint every 2-3 seasons to avoidaccumulation and thus too high thickness that could reduce the performance of the paint.
