Motor Maintenance time!!

Post by David Miller »

Well its that time again. After looking in the motor well and finding about 3 inches of barnicle growth on my outboard shaft, I decided it was time to haul the motor for a long overdue cleaning, sanding, repainting and servicing. After getting the motor home I realized my interlux paint has been sitting on the shelf for almost a year. My question is this: Does anyone know how effective interlux antifouling paint will be considering it is half used, resealed well, and been sitting on the shelf for almost a year? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.. David Miller "Coquina"

Tempo Clear Antifoulant

Once you get the crud off and the lower unit cleaned up, try the TEMPO
clear anti-foulant. I used it on the advice of a power boater. No growth since May.
