Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67 Boosted is the highest performance ablative copolymer ablative bottom paint available. This is a tough, multi-season paint for superior protection against hard and soft growth in extreme fouling conditions, and can re-launch after extended haul-out while retaining original antifouling properties.
Copper Pro SCX 67 has the highest copper content (67%), and the performance booster Slime Control Xtra provides outstanding protection against slime, grass, and weed. Perfect for powerboats and sailboats, and can be applied directly over properly prepared ablatives, epoxies and vinyls, and most any other hard or ablative bottom paints.
Available in gallons or quarts. Choose from Royal Blue, Marine Black, Admiral Green, Regatta Red, or Bright Blue.

Questions & Answers about Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67 Boosted:
2012-04-16BOB WHEELER asked: I don't know what type of bottom paint i had on my boat before but can i paint over it with the scx 67?
+Expand Answers
2012-04-17G. WILLIAM CARLSON: After power washing and smoothing out some scratches with epoxy, I applied SCX 67 and it has worked great from the Chesapeake to the Bahamas.
2012-04-17GORDON FRISBEY: I would not paint over it. Everyone I talk to and read says to sand down to the Gelcoat then paint the bottom. The different bottom paints do not stick to each other if the materials in the paint do not match. Since you do not know I would not chance just painting over the current bottom paint. I had the same problem on my little boat and I sanded to the gelcoat then painted with blue water and it worked well. Now I have painted again using Blue Water so I just scuffed and then painted. So far so good.
Good Luck
2012-04-19RICHARD FREHS: If your last application was ablative paint, then yes you use this outstanding product. If it was not ablative, you cannot use it or any other ablative product.
2012-05-02BROOKE SECKEL: Bob,
Yes you can apply Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67 over previous bottom paint.
However you need to sand the old paint first to promote adhesion. You want to thoroughly remove any loose and chipping paint.
I use 60 Grit and the Festool Dust Free sander. Be sure to wear Goggles and a Respirator mask-you don't want to breathe the old paint especially if you do not know what is in it.
If you are applying over a wooden bottom and get down to bare wood, a coat of "Red Lead" paint is the best primer available-hard to find, but worth it-it will hold for many years and protect the wood.
Blue Water has the highest copper content available and you will notice a significant decrease in the amount of Marine Growth on the bottom the first season.
2012-01-29A shopper asked: what is the formula for calculating how much bottom paint you need to purchase? Thanks. I have a Tayana Vancouver 42.

2012-01-30G. WILLIAM CARLSON: I calculated the surface area of my two catamaran hulls and purchased 50% more than the amount recommended by the mfgr. Worked out perfect. Since it is an ablative paint, the more coats the better. This stuff really works in both northern and southern climates. 2 years old and a brush is all that is needed to remove the little growth that attaches.
2012-02-23GORDON FRISBEY: The can says 400 square feet per gallon when put on with a brush or roller. Figure out your square feet on the bollom of your boat. Divide the square footage by 400 and then multiply by the number of coats. This will give you the number of gallons.
I chose this paint because I pull the boat out of the water all the time. For my other boat which stays in the water I use another paint.
Comments about Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67:
Do not buy the reducer or the thinner ...they are both just lacquer thinners relabeled. Also add a small amount of Lacquer thinner to the paint for a smoother finish.

Comments about Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67:
I have owned a 37 Searunner Trimaran in the Southern Chesapeake Bay for 10 years. 3 years ago we switched to Blue Water bottom paint from Interlux. Blue water stands up to cleaning the bottom much better than interlux. It's the right balance between ablative and a hard paint. Interlux is too soft so you lose too much paint during a cleaning. We are about to pull the boat to repaint with Blue Water.

Comments about Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67:
Easy to apply. Looks great. Great slime control. After one season on sailboat in Lake Ontario still looks like a new paint job - after washing. Other paints were not nearly as slime resistant. No zebra mussels either. Great value!

Comments about Blue Water Marine Copper Pro SCX 67:
I have just installed this product for the first time so no feedback on its resistance to growth but I would like to say that its coverage is excellent - I purchased 3 gallons for a 35 foot Morgan - a narrower beamed vessel 9 ft and considered that I might need most of the last can. I did not. I barely opened the last can. This product is cost effective and it covers very well. Two full coats on the hull from a very well sanded prep and with a third coat around the waterline three feet down. Extra coats on the front of the keel and more coats on the rudder and skeg leading edge - a high wear area from the thrust of the propellor. I will continue to buy this product from now on.
