TotalProtect universal high-build epoxy primer & barrier coat prevents & repairs gelcoat blistering. It eliminates water absorption & migration, the major cause of fiberglass hull blisters.
TotalProtect is also an excellent anticorrosive primer for underwater metals such as aluminum, steel, lead, cast iron, stainless & bronze & is compatible with all antifouling paints. Two-part 3:1 ratio system is easy to mix, dries fast & needs no sanding. Use above/below waterline.
Choose Quart or Gallon size in White or Gray.
Bonus: Each Gallon kit includes a roller frame & 3/16 in. nap solvent-safe cover, metal tray, stir stick, paint suit, roll of 1 in. painter's tape & 2 in. chip brush.
For best results, thin with TotalBoat Epoxy Primer Thinner 200 & use a 3/16 in. nap or foam solvent-safe roller cover.
THINNING: TotalBoat TotalProtect is a very thick coating that typically needs to be thinned, for best results. TotalBoat Epoxy Primer Thinner 200 is the required thinner for TotalProtect. Do not use any other thinner to reduce.
REQUIRED ROLLER: TotalProtect can be applied by brushing, rolling or spraying. For best results when rolling, use a 3/16" nap or foam solvent-safe roller cover.
Do not apply TotalProtect over 1-part paints.

The only thing I can say negatively is the amount of stirring needed to mix the two parts. The base is so thick and when you add the epoxy, it takes a long time to get it mixed properly.

I have used this on my boats for years. It has had the best results for me for barnacles, etc. And there is no copper leaching into the brackish river where my slip is!

I couldn't be more impressed with Jamestown Distributing. Product arrived on time and in good condition. To my surprise, it also came with paint brushes, roller, roller tray, painters tape and a Tyvek painters jump suit. I guess only time will tell with how the product holds up but at this point I couldn't be any happier.

The pluses. It works well. The minuses. Requires accurate mixing if you are not using it all at once. It also is thick so you need to have thinner on hand.

The gallon can was bent up all around, and the contents very lumpy. While there was no apparent leak-evidence on the can itself, the contents appeared to have lost some of its carrier fluids. Two facts indicated this to me. One the lumpy condition of the contents and the thickness of the product even after extended mixing with an electric mixer on a power drill. One other fact was in the amount of area this gallon of the product covered. I needed to order and wait for an additional quart of the product to finish the barrier coating of the bottom of a 23 foot O'Day sailboat. I also noticed when mixing and applying the product from the additional quart differences. The new Quart was of the normal viscosity and free of lumps.
