Interlux Pacifica Plus is a copper-free, environmentally friendly bottom paint with proven growth fighting power. This dual biocide antifouling paint combines Biolux slime blocker and Econea, a metal-free antifouling agent that blocks the growth of shell fouling barnacles, zebra mussels and other aquatic organisms.
The Econea paint film erodes over time to continually expose fresh antifouling agent. This biodegradable degradation won't harm the environment and lessens paint buildup for easy overcoating next season. Additionally, since Econea is not metal based, it can be used on and around underwater metals such as aluminum hulls, outdrives and running gear with less potential for galvanic corrosion.
Temperature °F (°C) | Touch Dry | Overcoating Time | Immersion Time |
---|---|---|---|
41°F (5°C) | 6 hours | 12 hours | 8 hours |
50°F (10°C) | 3 hours | 6 hours | 9 hours |
75°F (25°C) | 2 hours | 3 hours | 6 hours |
95°F (35°C) | 30 minutes | 2 hours | 4 hours |
Preperation
Bare Aluminum:
Sand with medium grade emery cloth to a bright metal finish. Wipe clean and apply a very thing coat of Viny-Lux Primewash 353/354. Prime with InterProtect 2000E/2001E. Viny-Lux Primewash can be omitted on sandblasted aluminum if priming with InterProtect is done on the same day as blasting.
Factory finished aluminum:
Prime with Primocon.
Bare fiberglass (polyester or vinylester)
Bare fiberglass must be properly prepared to prevent delamination of the antifouling paint. Start by scrubbing the surface thouroughly with soap and water using a stiff brush, then rinse with water. Wipe a small area witha clean rag that has been wetted with Firberglass Solvent Wash 202. While the surface is still wet, wipe with a clean, dry rag. Continue until the entire surface has been cleaned.
Bare Wood
Sand with 80 grade paper. Clean with Special Thinner 216. Apply first coat reduced 10% with Special Thinner 216. If necessary, fill seams with Seam Compound Brown 30.
Application
Mixing and thinning instructions:
Shake and mix well. Stir continuously while using. Thin only when necessary with Interlux Brush Ease 433 or Special Thinner 216 (not to exceed 10% by volume).
General application procedures:
Apply at least 2 full coats by brush or (solvent resistant) 3/8" nap roller. If during the application the brush pulls or roller drages, use Interlux Brush Ease 433 to improve handling. Apply an extra coat to high wear areas, such as the waterline, bow and keel areas.

This is the only paint my dealer uses. For 10 years now, I've never had barnacles on my pontoon. Interlux always makes a great boat paint.

Always use this and neber get the barnacles. Other pontooners have but I don't know what they have for pain. They all asked which paint I use and they will be switching. Great product!

I applied this product in Chaguarama's Trinidad and BEFORE I could reach Martinique the whole boat was covered in growth. Both slime, grass and poks. Withing two months of sailing this products completely failed. It is still on there but it does not work AT ALL. Aluminium hull, previous product used: Trilux 33 (much better)

Great product, great price, quick delivery, and excellent packaging. My only con is that I had to pay a boat yard to apply it. Any ideas on how to get a 25' tritoon (3 pontoons) off of the trailer for painting?
