Inflatable Boat Bottom Paint

DURABLE FOULING PROTECTION FOR INFLATABLE BOATS TotalBoat Inflatable Boat Paint is a flexible, water-based antifouling formulated for PVC, Hypalon, and similar inflatable boat materials. Whether you're maintaining a tender, raft, dinghy, RIB, or inflatable fishing boat, this easy-to-apply coating dries to a flexible finish that moves with the substrate without sacrificing adhesion and protection. While the ablative formula gradually wears away for fresh biocide when moving through the water, this paint won't lift, peel, or crack during transport or when rolled up/deflated for storage over the winter. EASY TO APPLY Inflatable Boat Paint is formulated specifically to let DIY boaters achieve professional results with basic painting tools. Apply using a 3/16" foam or nap roller, chip or foam brush, or conventional spray equipment for larger boats. This paint flows smoothly for even coverage and can be thinned up to 10% with water when needed. Most inflatable boats require only 1-2 thin coats for complete coverage. A single quart typically covers 2 coats on most standard 8'-10' inflatable boats. No primer is needed for a quality paint job - just wash and scrub inflatable materials to apply directly, or lightly sand previously applied coatings in good condition to overcoat. Not sure how much boat bottom paint you’ll need? Try our antifouling paint calculator to estimate how much you'll need for your project. FAST DRYING WITH SIMPLE CLEANUP Inflatable Boat Paint dries quickly to minimize downtime between coats and get your boat back in the water sooner. Depending on temperature and humidity, it's ready for a second coat of paint in as little as 1.5 hours. Apply between 50–90°F with humidity below 90% for best results. Water-based formula means fast soap and water cleanup. Brushes, rollers, and other application tools are easily cleaned after use without harsh solvents. There's no maximum dry time before launch, so you can paint on your schedule without losing antifouling effectiveness.  Inflatable Boat Paint's ablative formula wears off continuously to reveal a whole new layer of scum and barnacle-killing biocide. And because the paint wears away, there’s nothing to scrape off next time you need to paint – just do a little light prep and scuffing, then recoat.
