Micron CSC is a great multi-season ablative bottom paint with a copper-copolymer formula that provides controlled release of antifouling biocides at the paint surface.
Drying times depend on ambient temperatures, but ranges between 1-2 hours for touch dry and 16 hours for immersion. At least 2 coats recommended for proper application.
The longevity of the coating depends on the amount of paint applied. CSC antifouling paint retains its effectiveness even when the boat is removed from the water for extended periods (winter storage, for example). To reactivate come springtime, use a stiff brush or power wash lightly. Suitable for sailboats and power boats.
Available in Black, Blue, Green, Red, and Shark White colors in Quart and Gallon sizes. Dark Blue is available in Gallon size only.

Been using this paint for years........I store large boats and every year before putting them away we pressure wash the bottom and I always am consience of how the bottom paint looks, how it cleans up and how it last season to season. This product has come out on top every year since we started monitoring performance about 8 years ago.

First off when the paint arrived it was all over the box so i refused the order. I'm pretty sure the UPS guy let the package of paint fall and was thrown around his truck. Ahhh I called James town and let them know what happened and they shipped out a new order right away. They are awesome, and the customer support was great. I received a new package; the paint cans were still sealed and in good shape. The Antifouling bottom paint went on really nice and works great. Thank you Great job and great paint!

I've used Interlux Micron CSC previously and it works very well for my application. No issues with the product. Had a shipping issue: one gallon can arrived all bent to the point the lid could not be opened and closed. Jamestown was responsive and sent me an empty can to store the remainder of the paint
