When repainting your boat, you should carry out some preliminary steps to clean it and to ensure that any remaining layers of paint are still closely bound to the surface. If the old paint is deteriorating or delaminating, it should be removed completely or it will cost you more wasted time and money at a later date.

CLEANING AND INSPECTION Chemical strippers may be divided in two categories: 'PMMPXUIFDMFBOJOHQSPDFEVSFIFSFCFMPX t Solvent based strippers are corrosive liquids, which in contact t wash with fresh water, with a high pressure if possible, to with skin may cause ulcers.

t Let the stripper work for a few hours. The required time depends on the number of coats as well as on the temperature and the RH, since the stripper is only effective when wet.

AQUASTOP has been formulated with a tinting pigment. After application it shows a clear light blue color. This coloration is useful during painting to understand how much product is being applied: the higher the thickness, the darker the color.

TEAK The teak has always been considered a noble and precious wood BOEHSPXTJO4PVUI&BTU"TJB$PMPVSBOEWFJOJOHNBZWBSZ depending on the area of origin and the quality. The best quality teak shows a uniform golden colour sometimes with black veining. This wood has an oily feeling when touched, a strong and typical smell and is one of the most durable woods in the world, practically immune to attacks by insects and very resistant to water contact. Due to its beauty, durability, resistance and ductility the teak is an excellent wood for manifold uses. The teak is the only wood which can be used in all areas of the world, even in those where thermal cycling, humidity, salinity and winds may affect all other wood types. Because of its excellent resistance to the marine environment, the teak is nowadays used mainly for the construction of boat decks and does not require any protective treatment. Moreover the teak is not stained if in contact with TDSFXTPUIFSNFUBMMJDPVUåUT5IFPOMZOFHBUJWFGFBUVSFJTUIFIJHI price of teak, which restricts its use.
