Pacifica Plus
Pacifica Plus is designed for
those looking for a copper free antifouling. Pacifica Plus is a dual
biocide antifouling that uses Biolux® Slime Blocking Technology to combat
slime and Econea® to ward off barnacles and zebra mussels. Its ablative
action reduces paint build up and helps to improve fuel efficiency.
Because it wears away with use, the performance of Pacifica Plus is
directly related to the amount of paint applied (thin film thickness may
lead to premature fouling). Pacifica Plus is available in bright colors
and is suitable for use on all boats including fiberglass, aluminum, wood
and steel and can be used in all waters |

| Preparation |
BARE
ALUMINUM: Sand with medium grade (grit) emery cloth to a
bright metal finish and wipe clean. Apply one very thin coat of
Viny-Lux Primewash 353/354. Prime with Interprotect 2000E/2001E.
On sandblasted aluminum the Viny-Lux Primewash 353/354 can be
omitted if priming with Interprotect the same day as blasting.
FACTORY FINISHED ALUMINUM: Prime with Primocon.
BARE FIBREGLASS (POLYESTER OR VINYLESTER): Begin by
scrubbing well using soap and water and a stiff brush. Rinse with
fresh water. Wipe a small area with a clean rag that has been
wetted with Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202. While the surface is
still wet, wipe with a clean, dry rag. Continue this process until
the entire surface has been cleaned. No Sand System - Apply one
thin, continuous coat of Interlux Fiberglass No-Sand Primer.
Sanding System - Sand with 80 grade (grit) paper. Remove sanding
residue and wipe with Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202.
BARE WOOD: Sand with 80 grade (grit) paper. Clean with
Special Thinner 216. Apply first coat reduced 10% with Special
Thinner 216. Fill seams, if necessary, with Seam Compound Brown
30.
PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES:
In Good Condition: with Pacifica or Trilux 33 Sand with 80
(grit) grade paper. Wipe with Special Thinner 216. TBT Copolymers
If these coatings are more than a year old, wet sand the surface
with 80 (grit) grade paper to a clean, firmly attached surface.
Wipe down with Special Thinner 216. Apply 1-2 coats of TBT Sealer.
Non-TBT Copolymers Apply 1 coat of Primocon. Hard Antifoulings
Sand surface with 80 grade (grit) paper to a clean firmly attached
