Qué cubre este vídeo

Applying antifouling paint to a steel hull requires careful surface preparation, adherence to manufacturer-specified quantities, and professional hull thickness assessment. After cleaning and masking the hull, the owner applies two coats of antifouling, noting that failing to use the full recommended volume of paint necessitates an additional application to ensure proper coverage.7:48 An expert conducts an ultrasonic thickness survey on the steel hull, measuring 6 mm on the keel, 5 mm on the primary plating, 4 mm on secondary sections, and 3 mm on the remaining hull.8:33 The survey confirms no significant corrosion, though areas ground down for testing require cleaning with acetone, filling with epoxy, and priming before final antifouling application.12:07 The process concludes with plans to shift the boat on its cradle to treat the areas previously covered by support pads and the keel base.20:07 The owner also prepares 11 new anodes by drilling mounting holes.22:09 Achieving the correct paint thickness and ensuring thorough surface preparation are essential for effective hull protection.
