The choice of antifouling
The antifouling must be chosen based on the cruising speed of the boat and the material with which it is built.
All Brava antifoulings can be applied on wooden or plastic hulls, applying the appropriate primer where necessary.
A copper-free antifouling must be applied to aluminum or light alloy hulls.
Iron hulls are also subject to galvanic currents, however to a lesser extent:
it is therefore possible to apply copper-based antifoulings as long as an anticorrosive and insulating cycle is previously applied

Painting the wood
For the painting of traditional wood boats, the application of one-component oil-based paints is undoubtedly the best choice for its unsurpassed characteristics of elasticity, resistance and aesthetic qualities.
The number of coats to be applied is very important: from 5 to 8 coats, according to the absorption of the wood, are suggested.

primers
Primerplast 11

Resina 99
Fluid epoxy resin
Resina 99 is a solvent-free epoxy resin, with a degree of fluidity such as to penetrate deeply into the wood fibers. Resina 99 is used to reconsolidate deteriorated woods or to waterproof and protect new wood.
Alternative to Resina 90 in anti-osmosis cycles.
Microsfere 78
Microspheres additive
Glass microspheres to be added up to 100% by volume to Resin 90 or Resin 99 to obtain light fillers and customized glues.
Treatment and prevention of osmosis
When the water manages to pass the layer of the gel-coat and penetrates the laminate, the problem of osmosis arises. Osmosis occurs with bubbles up to 20 millimeters in diameter, filled with a liquid with a strong acid smell.
Indispensable is to show the boat to a specialist who can judge if you are really in the presence of osmosis and if it is appropriate to intervene immediately or not.
