Peter Davey is based in Nelson Bay, New South Wales has been boating for over 40 years.
Every year he would undertake the laborious and expensive task of slipping his boat to clean the hull, remove the biofoul, capture the waste for the environment regulations and then having to sand and repaint with toxic antifouling paint. All this costs money, time and energy just to be repeated every 12 to 18 months.
Peter decided to take a risk…some would say a big risk but to him it made perfect sense.
He chose to change direction after seeing the SPI Coatings products on the World's largest Blue Chip Casino Boat project in the USA and decided to apply the innovative, non toxic Moist Metal Grip® as an antifouling paint solution to his houseboat ‘Emily Ada’.
This vision gave him significant benefits with regard to maintenance saving, time and cost benefit long term compared with the traditional and toxic antifouling paints not to mention environmental savings.
Peter applied two coats of Moist Metal Grip® then put his boat back in the water again. It remained stationary for over 16 months.
Peter had the boat pressure cleaned which took off most of the biofoul
As Moist Metal Grip is acid resistant, he then rubbed in a small amount of acid which dissolved most of the shells and barnacles and removed the staining.
No toxic antifouling paint, no contractors to apply, no extra slippage time and no environmental impact.
Peter will put the ‘Emily Ada’ back in the water again and in the next 6 months will slip again to apply Enamo Grip White for complete protection and an even more hardier and slippery surface.
So if you're frustrated with the expense, time, labour and environmental impact of antifouling paints then consider Moist Metal Grip® and Enamo Grip® for your boat, future and hip pocket.
Moist Metal Grip® is a tough adherent, two component epoxy coating and demonstrates excellent chemical and solvent resistance when utilised in harsh environments and provides outstanding water and humidity resistance.
Moist Metal Grip® is a perfect solution for protecting corroded, wet, or condensating cold water pipes. It can also be used to coat re-bars for concrete, buried I-beams, water tanks, cooling towers, submerged structures, car wash equipment, boats, and more.
Antifouling paints are facing strong challenges around the world moving forward for environmental reasons.
What makes Moist Metal Grip® and Enamo Grip® even better is it contains no active ingredients using biocides that destroy sea life.
We're looking forward to seeing the ‘Emily Ada’ in the near future with a coat of Enamo Grip® White and many, many years of safe antifouling results...which will make slipping just that bit more enjoyable...and Peter's boating even more fun!
