Product Details

Neptune HRT is a new water-based antifouling paint that replaces Pettit Neptune 5. User-friendly low VOC formula features soap and water cleanup and no strong solvent smell, making Neptune HRT ideal for marinas under restrictions.

Hybrid Reactive Technology formula utilizes high-density biocide and film modifiers for better color consistency, less yearly build-up (less sanding), and lower finish weight, while providing a smoother finish than traditional paints. Hybrid formula combines the durability of a hard finish with the antifouling protection of an ablative. 25% Copper content ensures reliable performance.

For use on properly prepared fiberglass, wood, and steel hulls. Do not use on aluminum. Neptune HRT is compatible over almost all other antifouling paints.

Available in Quarts and Gallons in Black, Blue, Red, or Green.

Info & Guides
Pettit Neptune HRT is a hybrid antifouling paint that provides the toughness of a hard paint with the protection against all types of fouling you get from a seasonal ablative. It can be applied over all previously painted surfaces, and resists buildup after repeated applications.

This cost-effective water based paint is easy to apply and requires no sanding between coats, saving you time. Unlimited dry time to launch means you can paint today and launch whenever you want. You can even haul and relaunch without losing effectiveness. Eco-friendly Neptune HRT has no harsh solvent odors, so you can paint indoors, and cleanup is easy with soap and water.
