Aquagard bottom paint features water-based antifoulants specifically designed for fiberglass and wooden boats. It rolls on easily and dries quickly for outstanding results. This ablative paint exposes fresh anti fouling layers as the boat moves through the water, repelling barnacles and other growths.
Aquagard should be applied in multiple coats for multi-season bottom protection. It can also be used on inflatable boats without the use of a primer.
Because this environmentally friendly bottom paint is water rather than solvent based, clean up is easy and requires only soap and water.
All Aquagard paints are U.S. EPA approved, exceed V.O.C. standards, and have no toxic fumes. Paint comes in plastic containers for longer their shelf life.
Choose from quart, one gallon pails, or two gallon pails. Available in various colors.

2013-03-28PETER LONGO: John
I used this paint on a previously painted fiberglass hull that had some bare fiberglass showing--Had great results! As for wood I would not have a problem with a previously painted surface but i would look into whether bare wood might call for a primer of some sorts. This paint worked well for me and plan to use it on both of out glass boats! Good luck!

2013-04-06DANIEL ANDRESCAVAGE: Only used it on fiberglass
Sorry
2013-04-13SILVANA SKOKO: I am not using primer on already previously painted boat. I do have wood planked boat and the only places I am using the primer is the area where I am filling the gaps with cotton and linseed putty. This will be first use of this kinda of paint. Previously used Interlux Y69, oil based and it worked pretty well. The reason we switched is the clean up with water based paint. It should be easier.

2013-02-13FRED BUCKLEY: Sorry I haven't used the paint yet
2013-02-13DEBORAH PRICE: We bought our paint in red, its a flat paint for bottom of boat. Very good paint, rolls on beautifully, awesome coverage looks great, gallon goes a long way, still have a lot left, stays good in plastic container, dont leave out in cold weather. a little pricey but well worth money. You can give your boat many coats with 1 gallon.Highly recommend it.
2013-02-13MARK LASEK: The color I purchased was blue , paint goes on easy and covers well
2013-02-14PETER LONGO: This paint is a flat finish. It was really nice to use covered really well and I am buying more blue paint for my boat and will get the black for my son's boat. Cleanup was very easy and not nearly as messy as the oil based paints - seems to hold up well!

2013-02-15ROBERT SMITH: I would consider this paint to be a flat black once it dries.

2012-06-08CHARLES SOMELOFSKI: All I did was tape and paint the bottom. Went over it after it was dry with spar varnish. The varnish dried to a yellowish shade but overall a good paint.
2012-01-03ED B asked: At what temperature range can this be applied ?
Have used Aquagard since 1998 on my 34' trawler and 43' M/Y, application is extremely easy and clean up is done with fresh water. No fumes, no respirators. Boat is used in brackish, salt and fresh water, absolutely no buildup, if there is it will come right off with a light brushing, more importantly, no barnacles, etc and it's environmentally safe.p Also barrier coated my dinghy last year and applied Aquagard, left the boat in the water all summer, bottom washed right off. Great product.

I have used this for several years. As a single hander senior sailor I find both the ease of application and ease of clean up a benefit above and beyond being environmentally sound and effective.

The paint went on nice. I like the fact that it is earth-friendly. Obviously, I have no data on it's ability to retard barnacles, etc.
