Choosing an antifouling is always difficult. How can I be sure of its effectiveness at the end of the season? Will my hull still be clean? A good solution to get an idea of a product is to look at what the local professionals use. And you will often be surprised to discover that Jotun antifouling products are often popular.
Jotun, a reference in marine paint
It must be said that these products are very pleasant to apply. Offering a good tension when drying and a very attractive final result. The Norwegian manufacturer Jotun knows a thing or two about paint (it started in 1929!). It is now the largest marine paint manufacturer in the world. Also very present in industrial paints, it supplies in particular offshore platforms, the big towers in Dubai and on the prestige side, all the paints of the Eiffel Tower...
A very clear range
The Jotun antifouling range is quite simple with 4 underwater paints and a spray.
The Non Stop is the top of the line. It is a self-polishing antifouling. Racing is a hard matrix antifouling. Less charged and therefore more ecological âeuros but also less efficient âeuros we find the Mare Nostrum. Finally, for professionals, the Season is an entry-level antifouling.
A bit different, Aqualine Optima is a spray antifouling designed to protect bases and propellers. It is interesting to note that not all antifouling manufacturers have this type of product in their catalog.
Available to the general public
Still well priced (cheaper than the competition, but without being sold out), the whole range is now available on the brand's website with the possibility for individuals to buy directly on the site. The site also refers to its retailers if you prefer to find your antifouling pots on your port.
