Pettit Transducer Spray Paint 1793 is designed to be used on plastic transducer housings and bare metals such as steel, stainless steel, cast iron, copper, bronze, galvanized steel and lead. 1793 forms an excellent adhesive bond to underwater plastic housings and metals and inhibits corrosion on these surfaces.
Because of its smooth, hard surface it will self clean in service. Pettit Transducer Spray Paint can be used above or below the waterline. Do not apply anti-fouling paint over it. The dried film of Zinc Coat contains 93 percent pure zinc.

Shake can vigorously for one minute after mixing balls begin to rattle. Shake often during use. Hold can upright 12 to 16 inches from the surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface and in motion while spraying. Applying in thin coats. Allow no more than 5 minutes between two or three thin coats, otherwise allow to dry one hour before applying additional coats.
When finished spraying, clear spray valve by turning can upside down and spraying until no more paint comes out. If valve clogs, twist and pull off spray tip and rinse it in a solvent such as mineral spirits. Do not stick a pin or other object in the stem.
Remove all paint from underwater metals and running gear by sanding, scraping, sandblasting or by using a paint and varnish remover. Note: Do not use any solvent or paint and varnish remover containing ketone type solvents such as acetone, methylethyl ketone or methyl isobutyl ketone as these solvents will destroy the plastic transducer housing. Once back to bare, clean metal wipe the surface with Pettit 120 Brushing Thinner and let dry. For application to metals above the waterline remove all paint and rust with a wire brush or sandpaper. Lightly sand glossy surfaces.
Clean surface with Pettit 120 Brushing Thinner and let dry.
