Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

Applying antifouling paint to a rudder requires careful preparation and adherence to drying times to ensure a durable finish. After removing the rudder from the boat, the owner cleans the surface and applies three coats of Orange Marine grey antifouling paint, allowing three hours of drying time between each layer at 20°C.4:07 The process includes masking off areas to protect the backstay and using a generous application technique for the first coat.4:07 Beyond the antifouling, the owner repairs a structural gap between the upper and lower sections of the rudder using gelcoat to create a cleaner finish.16:57 To ensure the resin cures fully, the rudder remains off the boat for three weeks before reinstallation.18:09 The owner also notes that eliminating play between the rudder's metal bars improves autopilot performance.15:48 Comparing brands, the owner reports that Seajet antifouling previously provided better long-term protection than International products in high-fouling environments like Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer.12:37
