Pettit Neptune HRT bottom paint uses the latest technology available to create a hybrid paint film strong enough to handle the tough marine environment without building up over time. Soap and water cleanup, along with no strong solvent smell, yields a user-friendly application. Neptune HRT antifouling paint does not require sanding between coats, saving time and money. With low VOC it's ideal for marinas under restrictions.
HRT: Hybrid Reactive Technology features high density biocide utilization to maximize effectiveness, along with film modifiers to reduce yearly build-up, maintain color consistency, and lower weight.

Refer to the chart below to calculate how much Pettit Neptune HRT paint you will need for your boat.
Example: If your boat has a length of 28', and a beam of 8.5', you will multiply 28 x 8.5 x .85 to get your total square footage. The total square footage for this boat is 202.3 square feet. A gallon of Neptune HRT antifouling paint has a coverage of 500 square feet per gallon for one coat, so one gallon will be enough for two coats.
Pettit Neptune HRT is easily applied by brush, roller or spray. When rolling use only a high-quality short nap (maximum 3/16” nap) roller cover. Apply using thin coats; over-application of this product will virtually assure inadequate coating performance. For the smoothest possible finish: Thin the paint approximately 5-10% with clean fresh water. Wet the surface to be painted thoroughly with clean fresh water as well. This will provide a truer color and smoother finish. Slight variations in color and surface texture are not uncommon and should not be looked at with dismay. The surface will quickly smooth itself once in the water and any mottling of the color will diminish as well.
Pettit Neptune HRT contains cuprous oxide. As a result, there is a tendency for settling to occur, especially if the paint has been on the shelf for several months. It is necessary to thoroughly mix the paint before using.
Sanding Method: Sand the hull thoroughly with 80-grit sandpaper to a dull, frosty finish and rewash the sanded surface with 120 Brushing Thinner to remove sanding residue. Then apply two or three thin coats of this product, following application instructions. Careful observation of application instructions will help ensure long-term adhesion of this and subsequent years’ antifouling paint.
DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT ON ALUMINUM HULLS AND OUTDRIVES.
