Good coverage and it's exactly what I needed. Use lots of PPE as it does have a strong odor when applying. Follow the directions. Everything was shipped with my order.

The new to me downeast lobster yacht had this on it when I purchased the boat this spring and I elected to recoat with same product. Having never used before, I followed instructions carefully - sanded with 80 grit, wiped bottom with TotalBoat brushing thinner, then rolled on - came out really nice. The green is a brilliant green, looks so nice even got some great comments just after it was completed. Will definitely use again - minimal growth on boat from last year's application plus the way it went on.

I was pleasantly surprised at how easily the bottom paint was to stir and apply. I've used bottom paint annually for well over thirty years and this product was the easiest to mix and roll on.

My boat is in Rhode Island. The area I keep it is brackish and a high growth area. I'm happy with Kypton. I had previously used Seahawk's Cukote. I have the bottom cleaned three times a season and my diver complained about the amount of slime and crud on the bottom each time. Not so with the Krypton - he said "not bad!" after each cleaning. One of the best. The Krypton went on easily enough. I also applied it to my running gear. No hard growth. Color (Blue) still looks sharp after hauling and bottom washing. It did ablate - light sanding in spring and I will be ready for another coat. I do splash a little thinner in the tray to ease the application.

Works better than leading copper antifoul paints No yearly build up from resin based paint. High polish ablative will stay pretty sharp for up to 18 months I've found. I always prime new hulls before applying this but it's thin and stretches a long way. Won't be going back to Copper, using this for three years and I have no complaints.
