After sanding is finished, we apply Epoxyprimer on the blank Aluminum patches to prevent corrosion. To avoid chemical mismatching of the old and new paint, we roll one protection layer on the underwater hull and than 4 layers of new Antifouling paint.

It is very hot. Never the less, as Antifouling is poisonous we protect ourselves with coveralls, rubber gloves; protective glasses and plastic bags over our shoes.
